2.3.1 Installing Symbol Files from the downloaded FTP files

To install the symbol files corresponding to the new binaries in Service
Pack 3, type:

   XCOPY /S /U /D C:\SUPPORT\SYMBOLS\*.* %windir%\SYMBOLS

Note: This assumes that your C drive is the location in which the support
files were unzipped as instructed in Section 2.0, line item 5.

The XCOPY command copies the Service Pack 3 .DBG files over the existing
versions of these files. It copies only those .DBG files that are already
installed (/U switch) and only those with a more recent time stamp (/D
switch).
