The Microsoft Windows NT Server Support Tools, version 1.0 have been developed for the x86 platform and include:

 1. New debugger extensions to facilitate examination and analysis of a wider range of Kernel data structures than is conveniently possible today, especially when dealing with crash dumps. This set of tools is known as the "Kernel Debugger Extensions." 2. Tools for memory pool caller-tracking/tail-checking and increasing available pool statistics. This set of tools is known as the "Pool Enhancements." 3. A heuristics-based kernel memory crash dump analysis tool to aid in diagnosing memory corruption problems. This tool discovers and analyzes anomalies in the kernel memory space and is known as the "Kernel Memory Space Analyzer."

To install the tools, double-click the OEMTools.exe in a temporary directory to extract them. Read the readme.txt file in the root of the temporary folder.
