Debugging 64-bit dumps in visual studio

Can I use visual studio to debug a dump of a 32-bit application that was built on a 64-bit machine. My WinDbg is working, but the result is so confusing that I can't figure out what's going on.

Visual Studio 2008

If you're new to debugging with WindDbg, get a copy of John Robbins:

Debugging Microsoft .NET 2.0 Applications



It's well worth the investment and has a great introductory section on debugging with WinDbg.

I don't believe that between a self-tuning dump (32 by 32) and a 32 by 64 dump, what do you mean by "confused output"?



Try loading symbols for system dlls, set the symbols path in Visual Studio to the Microsoft public symbols path.
