Hi
someone on this forum wanted to know how to get windows xp with the right drivers in for a lot of dell pcs they were redistributing.
Basically an win xp setup disc with the right drivers for the pc they were installing it on. Instead of having to install the drivers separately.
So i found this link for who ever it was. it relating to windows 7 but may apple to xp as well:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/ee530017.aspx
So if that person finds this please let me know.
Thanks

I think that it might off been telegraph000 who wanted the drivers but i cant remember.

Cheers,
thanks i will get in touch with PiLOT

I dont want to let you down, but there is NO versions of WINDOWS VISTA available for BA and all PPCs, at least for this moment. The reason getting you confused may be the themes/skin created by Wisbar Advance. Do you know this wonderful software for our PPC World?
Vista...
Open your tomtom soft type "Vista" then search,
may you find...
What about Vista...
can you tell something?
is that skin?
is that Mobile Operating System?
Is that interface theme software plugin or program ? such as 'Wisbar'
Or what?
If you want MS Windows Vista...
Goto wwwdotmicrosoftdotcom
I don't fun with you that's true.
But here you can ask about only Windows mobile based systems,
I think that must be...
thx.
Why do all of these people think that vista is for pocket pcs? I've already had to explain it to one guy.
So I'd like to re-install the OS on one of my machines, but I only have an original Vista Ultimate DVD and separate SP1 update.
As the procedure to do this with my old disks is to uninstall SP1, reinstall the OS, and then reinstall SP1, suffice it to say that this would be a huge P.I.A., and it would take hours longer than it needs to if I had the right disk.
I'm not looking for a cracked version... rather, I want the real thing (got my own license keys, thank you very much).
Any help appreciated!
PS. Same thing would be great for 32-bit Vista Business!
y not Windows 7 beta.
u can download a copy from microsoft.com last month, now the offer expired.
sorry
but MS have copyright on the disk so we can't help you here.

Hello i am new to posting on this site but a long time reader and i have a Xda mini S (wizard).
anyway
i have been looking around the internet because of a crazy idea in my mind.
The idea came to me yesterday after upgrading my rom to WM6.1 then to WM6.5
So am looking at WM6.5 and just am thinking wouldnt it be nice to have Windows Xp on my phone so can be like a portable laptop with calling and texting.
i saw some thing about it for a different pda i think
so was just wondering is it possible to upgrade the rom and install XP on a Xda Mini s.
Doesnt have to be like the Desktop version it can be a mini remake.
as long as its possible to flash it again afterwards if i change my mind about it.
Anyone have any ideas for me ?
An easy way to fix this is via citrix, or via vmware...
well you must be a retard to think xp run on wizard is no such thing runnning xp on a pda close thread please...
@HackWindows
Take a look at windows 98/XP on PDA!!!!!.

Maybe you should think outside the box a little before emphatically saying something isn't possible. Heck, 60 years ago noone thought it possible to carry around a phone withoutwires, or have a computer smaller than the size of a room.
hello,
i wanna say i had win 98.
but.... you have to change resolution with nyditot cause it isn't vga.
and on mine the mouse doesn't work.
just se this lik earlyer said http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=362344
.
so goodluck i know it works cause i had it myself.
but as i said no mouse and slow.
just try it is great to see
also watch youtube there are movies about it.
Well, it is impossible to run Windows XP natively, because the architecture of the wizard(or any htc smartphone) differs from the pc architecture.
However, there are 2 ways to "run" xp on your wizard:
1) With an x86 emulator like bochs or qemu; you don't want that because it's even slow on a normal pc, and you still don't have sufficient RAM to run xp.
2) Run xp on a normal pc and use VNC or RDP to control it remotely(so you need a fast internet connection). I believe there an rdp app called "Terminal Services client" on a default wm installation, so I'd go for that one.
If you want to run windows to play games on your pda, I'd advice to forget it, vnc and rdp are not designed for such tasks...
Well, I dig this idea. any one with the know how should be able to port Tablet PC OS into an .nbf file with all the right drivers an stripped of all unnecessary junk ( a minimalist version) . If not a complete os than lookalike may be. May be i am dreaming big but someone should be able to help. I see ppl trying to port Linux/ android on wizard than why not XP?
The Omap processor (which is an ARM processor) isn't powerful enough to Emulate a x86 processor with acceptable speeds and memory to run XP on a wizard (even if XP has been stripped etc..).

Hi guys,
as I read through the threads the upgrade to Win 7, same as the downgrade to Win XP, always requires the new installation of all software application programs that are not bundled with the OS.
i.e. MS Office, FireFox, Navigation software, ......
In June 2009 various news sites confirmed this obstacle.
In the last days I read that there will be (possibly) an upgrade that will not require the user to re-install the application layer programs.
Can anyone confirm or deny this statement.
And if it's confirmed will it be possible for the Shift?
Thnx a lot, guys
If you are upgrading from Vista, it is fine - you can do an in place upgrade and it will bring all your installed programs across.
If you have downgraded to XP, the only way to upgrade whilst preserving all your install programs is to upgrade to Vista first, and the upgrade to Win7 - there is no direct path from XP to Win7.
Regards,
Dave
Yeah, but Vista is still lurking, isn't it?
I'd rather endure installing everything twice (XP and Win7) than have Vista anywhere near my Shift!
In fact I did

Hi Dave,
thnx for your information.
I haven't done any downgrading (XP), not even the SP1 for Vista.
I have only liberated the Shift.
The OS is as shipped from HTC, only application programs installed.
If I do an inplace upgrade, will it get rid of all the Vista stuff that slows down the device? Meaning, will it be as good as a "complete from scratch" installation of Win 7?
Second, which version of Win 7 should I get? Home, Professional, RC?
And where do I get it?
Thnx a lot, cheers

Yesterday I made a full backup image of my Vista installation. Then I upgraded my HTC Shift to Windows 7 Enterprise RTM from MSDN.
The upgrade process took 3 hours, because it had to migrate 300.000 files and settings from one OS to the other. Before the setup I had 15GiB free on the HDD and after that 18GiB where free! So upgrading Vista to Windows 7 won't leave any old memory chunk on the HDD.
I only had to reinstall the Touchscreen Drivers. Everything else was still there: Several network shares, desktop widgets, explorer settings, all the applications with theirs settings, my two Outlook profiles with their on Exchange setups and so on.
Windows 7 itself also responds faster than with Vista. With the same auto-start applications I have more free RAM available and the OS itself looks much better.
So I can only recommend you to upgrade your Vista to Windows 7.
There is no need for a clean install, as long as your current Vista setup isn't anyhow broken.
After this Windows 7 experience I hope that the prejudice against Windows upgrades will be a thing of the past.
edit:
For the Windows 7 upgrade your Vista needs to have SP1 at least. I upgraded a Vista with SP2 and the latest Windows Update patches. The setup has to be started within Vista, otherwise it won't allow an upgrade. And you don't need to burn the Windows 7 DVD. You can mount it in Vista into a virtual drive or you can extract the ISO files to an folder. Before the first reboot the setup copies all the necessary installation files onto the local HDD. So after that the DVD isn't needed anymore.

Well i followed these steps - and when windows 7 boots the touch screen did not work as stated - so i downloaded the drivers from the HTC shift page, installed them. Although they did not error - they also did not work - seems to install properly but still not touch screen.
Also when I put the screen to 1024x600 the device bluescreened as it did in the pre-release versions..
Has anyone got Win 7 working (MSDN Release) and all hardware working; if so please share your steps.
Thanks
Kris

MS have stopped distributing the RC now, but they will still provide product keys for it until Oct'09 (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/get/download.aspx).
You can get the full RTM version of Win7 if you have an MSDN or Technet subscription, but otherwise you'll have to search the usual sources for a copy of the RC iso (not promoting warez here!).

Dave

Hello,
please try to uninstall the the VistaECDrvV1[1].0.1.10 driver first, then reboot, install it again and reboot again. Afaik I did this to activate the touchscreen driver.
Good luck!
And about 1024x600: That is a known problem. The Intel driver creates a BSOD as soon as you use a resolution higher than 800x480. The current workaround is to disable the Aero effects. With Aero Basic you can switch to higher resolutions without crashing the system.
I hope this will be fixed soon.

I need to try windows phone, i'm gonna get a one if i like it:cyclops:
The Web based windows phone is crap:silly:
i don't have a SnapDragon 200 or 400 so i can install windows phone 8.1 when it's out
and i have Windows 8 x86 but the SDK needs x64, i don't want to upgrade to x64 cause my RAM is Small
Any Help?????
I... can't even really tell what you're talking about. "Web based windows phone"? "i can install windows phone 8.1"?
Most stores in the US will let you try a phone for a while, and if you don't like it you can return it (sometimes there's a "re-stocking fee"). I have no idea if there's anything equivalent wherever you are...
i)If you have android...u can try with those wp launchers (although personally they are crap)
ii)Watch a lot of wp youtube videos and then sleep...xperience it in your dreams!!
iii)steal a lumia from anyone you know
iv)try it out at a store
v)dont drink bfore posting
You could try running the SDK on a virtual x64 Windows machine using Windows Virtual PC
