Summary

In this installment, I’ll show how, in our upcoming software release, SourcePoint can coexist with multiple copies of WinDbg, to further enhance insight into Windows’ operations.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Using multiple debuggers on a real physical target is a very advanced debugging technique, and requires a strong knowledge of both SourcePoint and WinDbg. Then, on the target, open a Windows Administrator command prompt, and type: Note that the IP address of your debugger host PC will be different than what’s listed above. Then click on the StartWinDbgX (Preview) or StartWinDbgC (Classic) macro button to establish the EXDI connection between WinDbg and SourcePoint: Then, hit Enter a couple of times from the AAEON BIOS password prompt to begin the boot into Windows.
