Debug View is a useful tool for debugging driver or application problems. It displays kernel driver log messages and other debug information. The software may be downloaded directly from Microsoft here.
[edit] Usage
Extract the zip file download above. Right-click on Dbgview.exe and select "run as administrator". Under the Capture menu, select "Capture Kernel" and "Enable Verbose Kernel Output".
[edit] Example using USB devices
In this example, we debug the startup of the 2253.
- Unplug the USB device from the computer.
- Start DebugView as administrator and make sure kernel messages are turned on.
- Plug in the 2253 USB device.
- Start the application and perform any actions needed to reproduce the problem.
- Copy log messages from DebugView window and send to Sensoray support if necessary.
[edit] Example using PCIe devices
In this example, we debug the startup of the 953.
- Start DebugView as administrator and make sure kernel messages are turned on.
- In DebugView under the Capture Menu, select "Log Boot".
- Close DebugView.
- Reboot the machine.
- When computer is done rebooting, start DebugView as administrator again.
- Make sure kernel messages are turned on.
- Start your 953 application program, start channels, and let it operate normally for a minute.
- Copy log messages from DebugView window and send to Sensoray support.
