Cannot find disassembly and memory view windows

I am trying to debug a low-level interop-related problem in a C# program. When doing this I want to be able to look at disassembly, and also look at memory contents.

These functions are available in the disassembly window and the memory windows. I can enable these windows using the keyboard combinations (Ctrl-Alt-D or Ctrl-Alt-M, 1)

My question is why are these windows not available on any menu or toolbar The documentation mentions that they should be available on the Debug > Windows submenu when the debugger is stopped at a breakpoint, but they are not.

I am using the RTM version of Team system developer edition of Visual Studio 2005.

    Under Tools -> Options -> Debugging -> General, make sure the "Enable Address-Level Debugging" option is checked.

    I solved my problem by using Tools > Export Import Settings > Reset all settings.

    I suspect that the fact that I have previously had a few beta versions of VS2005 had corrupted my settings somehow.

    Now everything works as expected
