Hi!

I use SoftICE with Win XP and it works pretty good. Well... almost: I can set a Breakpoint on every API function, but if I try to set a BPX on Hmemcpy, SoftICE says: "Symbol not defined".
What's my mistake?

Please help me!!!

Your mistake is that you didn't read the posting guidelines which are highlighted on the first page of the forum. It states "Please read the Posting Guidelines before posting." Had you done so, you would have known to use the "search" button and entered questions such as "Hmemcpy" and, perhaps "Hmemcpy + Softice" and you would have easily found your answer.

Hmemcpy was a workaround which the M$ programmers placed on top of DOS when they started writing Win 3.whatever. It is not a valid API and was never a part of Win NT, which is the basis for the development of Win2K and WinXP. Therefore, Hmemcpy does not exist in WinXP and you can't get Softice to break on something which doesn't exist. With WinXP you have to use API's to break on when fishing for a serial or such.

Please learn how to help yourself before you ask someone else to do your work for you. If you show your effort and where you are stuck, you will find lots of help here.

Now try it with "the other foot" and see if you can get off to a better start. Go back and read the Posting Guidelines and you'll know what to do next time you have a question.

Regards.

THERE IS NO HMEMCPY IN WIN2K/XP
