The Debug Symbols that Microsoft provides are only usable for the RTM or Sp1 Version of Windows 7. When you install an Update, the PDBs no longer match.
Here you must point to the Symbol Server to download the new PDBs:
Resolve Symbols
It's easier if you have an internet connection to let windbg find and download the correct ones for you, whereby it will be cached locally:
.symfix;.reload
Will go and fetch the correct symbols from the MS symbol server at http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
if you download them yourself then you have to download the correct version matching your specific build and this is just too much of a headache to maintain so IMO it's just simpler to just let windbg handle this for you.
