We are using CE 5.0 with VIA CLE266 x86 hardware and have occasionally (3-4
times) seen where several areas of the LCD display have 'garbage' displayed
that we do not explicitly display.  After some investigation, we connected a
USB mouse/keyboard and found that the two areas ...

If you generate an SDK with platform builder, then just install it on
the same machine, could you just skip the SDK, use the standard SDK,
and use lib and include paths to point into the platform directories to
get headers and libs?

I wrote a simple memory check routine that runs out of flash.  I am
getting an error condition  because of the code.  I am always skeptical
when I think I have found a bug in something as fundamental as the
compiler but I don't know what else to think.

We are using CE 5.0 with VIA X86 hardware and find that the LCD display is
blank from when CE starts to boot and to shortly after the video driver
(ddi_VIA) starts.  This takes ~7.5 seconds and we would prefer to have
something on the screen so that people know that it is working ...

My device OS is WinCE 4.2.
I would like to keep the ActiveSync functions.
Howerver, I would like to prevent users from copying files to storage memory

I have created a device driver for my CEPC system, which I have included in
the sysgen, along with registry entries to automatically load my driver on
bootup.  Over the course of my XXX_Init() routine, I call OutputDebugString()
a number of times to send debug output to the ...

 I wonder if anyone here has experience with including MFC applications in
an O/S image created by platform builder.  I have created an MFC application
in eVC++.  I made a NOTARGET project for platform builder and had the
postlink.bat file copy the application to my release ...

      what is the significance of ROMOFFSET in boot.bib, can anyone
explain what it actually does

I have the basic form of a device driver. It exposes Init() and DeInit()
functions.  Init returns a context handle that can be used to recall the
driver context at a later time.  When Init is called by device.exe (on CE
boot), what happens to the context that i return from Init ...

 This sounds a newbie question, although I've been working on CE for some
time. ;)
 I am trying to pull in the sample DShow filter samples "ball" to my
workspace and build it into a DLL (the original sources file builds it as a

     I am facing a problem in BSP development using WINCE 5.0, after
building my bootloader if i see my eboot.bin file my code is placed at

I've recently gotten our USB RNDIS KITL driver working on our new
platform. However, it is EXTREMELY slow - unusable. It all works - PB's
debug UI shows all the right stuff, allows me to break into the OS, but
its just way too slow. When I capture the USB traffic, I see spurts of
