Download Windows Symbol PackagesYou can download the Windows symbols, or you can make the symbols available to debugging tools over the network by using the Microsoft Symbol Server. If you want the entire set of symbols for Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, or Windows 2000, then you can download a symbol package and install it on your computer. The symbol download packages are listed by processor type (x86, Itanium, and x64) and build type (retail and checked). Almost all customers require the symbols for the retail version. If you are debugging a special version of Windows with extra debugging information, then you should download the symbols for the checked version. Windows XP and later and Windows Server 2003 and later do not require localized symbols in order to debug localized versions of the product. Each symbol download package for these versions of Windows works for debugging all localized versions. Before downloading and installing each symbol package, you should have at least 1 GB of disk space free, because of the size of the download package and required temporary files:

For information on how to retrieve symbols for a machine that is not connected to the Internet, see Using a Manifest File with SymChk. Feedback - We are interested in your feedback about symbols. Please mail suggestions or bug reports to windbgfb@microsoft.com. Technical support is not available from this address, but your feedback will help us to plan future changes for symbols and will make them more useful to you in the future.
