Stack Frame

These entries in the Call Stack window are typically the names of processor registers for the processor on which the program being debugged is executing. The available registers are those generally associated with the stack. For example, on Intel processors, the stack pointer (ESP) and base pointer (EBP) are used, respectively, to keep track of the current function's stack frame and the calling function's stack frame.

From the Options->Display style dialog for the Call Stack window, select the processor registers whose contents you want displayed.
