SoftICE problem: cannot translate Windows XP symbols

NTDEV
1

Hi there!

I’ve got the newest SoftICE Driver Suite (2.6) and a retail build of Windows
XP (2600). Installed symbols are the ones for XP found on
www.microsoft.com/debugging.
Now my problem: I cannot translate ANY symbol file - the loader is moaning
about “unsupported format”. VC DLLs for PDB files (from VC6 and VC7) are
present.

Does anybody have an appropriate solution for this?

Thank you in advance,
Alex

It should work, at least does for many ppl. Just be sure that msdia20.dll is
corectly registered , and you load/translate the binary file, not the PDB
file itself. I also put the binary and coresponding symbol in the same path,
donno if Loader32 has a "symbol path’ fucntionality, never bothered to check

Even I have faced this problem.Try Rebuilding and restarting the system or
try to rename your driver and then load the symbols.
