That advice doesn't really help him.

I'm just getting cranked on debugging... I'll have some input tonight, but I encountered the same issue, though I had installed the XBDM.DLL in my "E:" drive.


:::shrug::: I'm having a few other quirky issues, so I'll have to look into those after work.

Ack.

Developing on the XBox with the Debug BIOS is a bit of a change.

My projects now appear in a different directory, since "E:" is mapped to E:/msdevkit instead of E:/

So undead - what's the deal with the symbols? You out there?

just hit cancel when it asks you for that, it will still allow you to debug source level.

Yes, I know... it's just annoying to do this everytime I crank upthe debugger (I get two message boxes and a THREAD.ASM dialog.)

that's weird, it only asks me for the .dll and thread.asm the very FIRST time I debug a specific project, after that it just fires right up.

Maybe I'll fiddle around with it tonight.

I don't think it did that when I used the Feb '03 XDK and VS.NET - I'll have to recheck when I get home.

OK.... I got it settled.

Went into project settings and in the "debug" panel, switched the combo to "Additional DLLs" and deleted the selected symbol files out, and unchecked the "look for DLLs" option.

Works fine now.

Now that you mention it... when trying a virgin project I get the same.

Oh well, BenJeremy solved it as usual. smile.gif
