Just a general Question:

Does the 16 bit version of softIce work in a pure Win32 environment?

When I try to debug a 16 bit app with my regular Sice, it breaks only inside the NTVDM module, which is emulating the 16 bit environment for the app.

Neither Olly or WinDasm debugger seem to break inside the app code.

To restate the question, are there other 16 bit app level debugger that would work in a 32 bit environment?

I think that the older versions of Borland Turbo Debugger will do the job... Unless you ran into memory problems

Have a try!

Why do you need to run 16bit version of sice in win32? All win32 sice can debug 32bit, 16bit windows and also dos code. Or try vmware, install win3.1 there and run 16bit sice there (works!).
