WinCE

[ProMiNick]

Hello all.
Does anybody know how to enable internet connection in microsoft device emulator (wince 5.0/6.0 for ARMv4s).
or how to run these binaries on other emulator so way thet network driver would be emulated.
Or I need special *.bin with drivers inside compatibable with microsoft device emulator network driver.

[Beta12]

Which emulator?

[ProMiNick]

Microsoft® Device Emulator 9.0.21022.8

I write for it(WinCEs) couple of programs in assembly

1st one has only close button & named WinCE program template, 2nd one is set of LASTERR.EXE & ERRORMSG.DLL - I checking opportunity of writing GUI & DLLs.
I willing to write some progs that will use network adapter (and of course to check that I wrote them correctly), but by default it is not emulated. So problem of absence of network support in current WinCE5.bin & WinCE6.bin or in emulator itself or it could be seted up in any way to allow internet connection (but I don`t know how make such setup).

Or may be so: "Is here a kind person happy owner of real device with WinCE that could test WinCE apps (apps could be harmful for device, but I`ll try to test in emulator that they at least not hung OS)?"

should I patch hints for setup.exe - or this won`t help?

You trying to install Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 SP1 on Windows XP Professional x64 Edition? Read the requirements, there is no Windows XP Professional x64 Edition which means it is not supported. Even if you patch it and you get past the installation, other things might be incompatible.

Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 (no SP1) does support Windows XP Professional x64 Edition so try that.

Bla, bla, bla - don't write stupid things . I use MS VPC 2007 SP1 on WinXP SP2 x64 on a daily basis and it works very well.

@ProMiNick - You have something wrong on your system or you are not using WinXP SP2 x64. Go to My Computer -> Help -> About Windows and attach screenshot. You are definitely using the version 5.2.3790 ???:

[ProMiNick]

beta12, if thou use VPC 2007 on some previos build
I guess patching hints can realy fix problem: it is unlikely that since the previous build, the functionality would have been cut off, but that it expanded can be seen in the example kernel32.dll all imports above $03xx are two position greater then required.

I even can zeroed hints in imports - that will made much work to sysloader - couple of miliseconds before app start, but setup would became more compatibable.

qfe.120821-0338

What is the Windows version ??? Where did you get this version from?

I have the MSDN version:
en_win_xp_pro_x64_with_sp2_vl_x13-41611.iso and MS VPC 2007 SP1 works 100% on this version.

[ProMiNick]

I don`t remember... It is my main home OS for a long long time. I prefer do not touch thing that work.)

[ProMiNick]

I patched hints - doesn`t helps.
I gues it required other msi (winXP got it 3.x version usualy)
but mine msi is 4.5 from 2012 year

[vlad557776]

After searching a bit. looks like QFE is a synonym for a hotfix. The QFE version of Windows XP was mostly distributed through OEMs. Maybe that's something preinstalled with the PC?

[Beta12]

Please take a screenshot of Add or Remove Programs with the Show updates option selected (scroll down).

After installing the update KB2724197 in the system information I have now 120821-0338 and gdr instead of qfe
Regardless of this MS VPC 2007 SP1 can still be installed without a problem:

@ProMiNick - You have something wrong on your system.

The Windows Installer version is the default 3.1.4000.3959

[Lucas Brooks]

Read the supported OS on the official site. I am not being stpid, Microsoft did not say it is compatible with Windows XP Professional x64 Edition but did say VPC 2007 SP0 is compatible.

[Beta12]

@ProMiNick
What is post-SP2 Update Pack ???

Read the supported OS on the official site. I am not being stpid, Microsoft did not say it is compatible with Windows XP Professional x64 Edition but did say VPC 2007 SP0 is compatible.

System requirements

Supported operating systems: Windows Server 2003 x64 editions

Win2003 x64 = WinXP x64 so since it works on 2003 x64 it must work on WinXP x64. I think MS just missed the WinXP x64 entry. Note that updates for these systems are common, e.g.:
WindowsServer2003.WindowsXP-KB955704-x64-ENU.exe
WindowsServer2003.WindowsXP-KB926139-v2-x64-ENU.exe
WindowsServer2003.WindowsXP-KB948963-x64-ENU.exe

Anyway - I've been using MS VPC 2007 SP1 for many years on WinXP SP2 x64 and it works very, very well. I assure you that on a freshly installed system without any updates, MS VPC 2007 SP1 works without a problem.

Of course, the network works in the emulator Microsoft® Device Emulator 9.0.21022.8:

[Lucas Brooks]

Why don't you just install Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 SP0? Does SP0 not provide network features? Microsoft said SP0 does support Windows XP Professional x64 Edition SP2 so isn't it better?

No - SP1 support new Host and Guest operating systems. There is also an update that improves network performance and adds support for higher resolutions, e.g. FullHD - of course it also works on WinXP SP2 x64:
64bit_KB958162.msp

how to get ftp access. I need it only for one file.

Offtopic Comment

You have to share something we don’t have in the ftp. There is a database viewer so you can see what we do have. Oh and if you have a better dump of something that works too.

[ProMiNick]

Meow? thanks but I already understand that needed to code beta version of something.
I have couple of ideas of realy exclusive things:
or heptovigesimal editor,
or documentation database in mysql for documenting structs, functions, interfaces where data represented in compact way
any of them as helpers to me. but I ready to close sources for them for a year. so betaarchive would be single owner of sources when this ideas was in beta stage dated previously then all future things with similar functional.
I don`t asking ftp access anymore. When I code something interesting I will back to asking.
