Recommend a debugger

I have only the executables, a .exe file and a .dll file. The program
(.exe) eventually makes a call to a very short routine in the .dll file,
and bombs. I looked at the .dll routine being called with PE Explorer
(http://www.heaventools.com/) and the routine being called is only about
a page long.

Somehow I got to get in there with a debugger to see why it's going
wrong. I have "Debugging Tools for Windows" which has WinDbg.exe,
and "logger.exe" looked promising, but I can't figure out how to
use them.

So is there any decent documentation on how to use WinDbg, or is
there a third party debugger anyone would recommend?
.
