dosBox Fun - HTC Vox

hi!
i'm new to this forum and i managed to boot windows 1.01 with the help of pocket DosBox.however,i can't get anything else to see but the background colour.
also i managed to get commander keen 1-6 installed and working(although newest versions crash after some time)
alley cat which works extremely well(not at all wondering myself because it's a low resource game)
i couldn't run duke nukem1 it says:
"dos/16m error:[15]protected mode available only with 386 or 286"
borland pascal 7.0 doesn't work also (why????) it says:
invalid opcode at 125d 0de6 f200 00c6 ....and so on
has anybody tryied anything like this on his vox?
i forgot to say that i use dr.gonzo's guava rom flashed after i got sick and tired of orange's romanian rom...

Forget about it. PocketDOS emulates the XT systems with VGA display. I ran it on my QTEK 9100 and I could run MS-DOS 6.22 and Windows 3.0
Windows 95 requires 32 bits systems and it does not run on PocketDOS.

then what other dos emulators are there to suport win 95?

thank you scypax

you're welcome.if you have any questions post them here

refuse to work
i see the startup splash but then it close without any errors

Sounds like you might need to install the eMbedded Visual Basic Runtime for Pocket PC 2003!
eMbedded Visual Basic Runtime for Pocket PC 2003 can be found at;
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/resources/downloads/developer/evb.mspx
As far as the list goes one was started here on this forum some months ago, so trying doing a search on the subject.
HTH
It would have been handy to have a compatability settings like xp where you can choose to run a program under 95 compatability for example.
Qman
thanks but i have the source of that hp48 emu prog and it being c++ makes me think that more then vb dll's will be required to solved
if only i had the embeddet visual studio for 2003 i could try and find a fix because from what i can read on the site of that hp48 last time they did any work were like 2001 or something

I want to make programs for HTC Touch Pro (WM 6.1)

Hey guys,
I am a programmer at heart and have developed in many different languages(C,C++,Java,PHP,ASP...). I want to begin developing applications for the Touch Pro (WM 6.1) but I have no idea where to start. My biggest fear is downloading the WM 6.1 emulator messing around with it for weeks only to find out that's not what I should have been using. Can anyone give me some pointers as to where I should start? Are there any tutorials out there for programming for this phone?
I also noticed that the WM 6.1 emulator didn't support the 480x640 resolution that the HTC Touch Pro uses...
Thanks!

Do you know of an emulator for the HTC Touch Pro? I downloaded a program that I know works, and was able to compile and run it on my phone but when I tried to run it with the emulator it was missing the HTCSensorSDK.dll file... something fairly new i presume. I tried default emulator and the Windows Mobile 6 Professional VGA emulator but I was wondering if there was one available for this phone yet.
I want to know the same thing
If/when you find an answer to this I would love to hear about it or see a post on it. Thanks.
There's no such thing as a software-only emulator for the Raphael's hardware, that would be incredibly complex to create for such a task
What the developers use is called a "Board Support Package" - it basically contains all the raphaels hardware, in a PCI card that gets installed in a slot in the computer.. that way all the drivers, etc can be loaded and everything can be tested as it would be on the phone itself.
There's pretty much not a chance in heck of you getting one of those (although if you do, send one my way, I would love to have one )
The emulators are useful for testing generic software that does not tie into any of the features that require raphael hardware. There should also be emulator images to support all resolutions (qvga square, qvga, vga, not sure about wvga/wqvga)
And, here's the link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...52-f89e-4354-84ce-5d19c204498a&displaylang=en
Looks like it does in fact come with wqvga and wvga emulators
Note that you can use an emulator kitchen to add SOME of the htc stuff to the ROM image, but none of the drivers that support the htc hardware will function.

emBedded Visual Basic Runtime for WM 6.1

Hey
I am new at this board but I hope that you can give me an answer to my problem. I´d like to run "Max Tilbergs A Viking Saga" (For those who´ve never heard about it: It´s a game for PPc )
The Installation is no problem but when i try to start it there came a window and say that it is important to install the "emBedded Visual Basic Runtime" for this prog. So i googled for this but i found only a version for windows 2003 of this programm. I tried to install this version - nothing changed.
Maybe someone could help me with this little problem .
MfG
Tobi
P.S.: sorry for my bad english
Hi,
the file from typhur worked for me (but not on storage card). "A Viking Saga" works now

embedded vb 3 was the last vb without being vb.net which don't use vb runtimes
but old 2003 vb runtimes should work ok under later devices

How do I use Windows Mobile apps on a Windows CE 6.0 device?

I just bought a Windows CE 6.0 device called the A81 MID that has the following specs
7 inch 800x480 lcd screen
Arm Cortex A8 600mhz
256mb ram
WinCE 6.0
I bought this thinking since i can use alot of wince apps on WM phones it would work the other way around too
Im trying to install Skyfire and Opera on the device because IE sucks on this device.
Every time I try to install a .cab ile I get the error "not a valid windows ce setup file"
Whats strange is that a lot of programs i have that is designed to run on WinCE won't open on 6.0 either
one example was FinalBurn CE .14, nothing happens when i open the .exe
Even the classic CAB installer to manage cabs from self destructing when installing fails to open and gives me the error "not a valid windows CE application"
Is this problem unique to this device or to WinCE 6.0?
The CAB files include some information saying on which platform and/or version of the OS it can be installed. IMO this is the only issue that prevents the application to be installed on your notebook, and this will also result in the error message you wrote. It's the same message that appears for instance when you try to install an application that requires WM 6 on a PPC 2003 device.
Since WM is based on Windows CE it's usually no problem running WM applications on Windows CE, unless you don't access any telephony APIs or any other similar stuff explicitly available only on the WM platforms.
So you can just go ahead and extract the files and registry settings from the CAB and install them manually, or re-create the CAB with different version requirements. If it doesn't work then I dare to say it's 100% the reason that some special WM APIs are used.
I managed to run some WM application on a Windows CE emulator. They are actually working fine, though the GUI doesn't look very good because they are optimized for Mobile phone screens and not adapted to the Windows CE "Desktop" OS.
I also have a Windows CE notebook and I'm planing on porting Nitrogen to it. If I have the time. Some day. Eventually. Yes.
Edit: problem of some WinCE applications not running on your machine might be that they are designed for WinCE 5. WinCE 6 has a re-designed kernel and some APIs are obsolete.... It's the same problem that will happen when we'll be switching from WM 6 to WM 7.
any ideas on how i can extract the registry and files? ive tried a couple of cab extractor and they all end up giving files with weird names and extensions such as skyfir34580.001 and other rubbish like that. Winrar gives me even worst filenames. is there any kind of tutorial you can point me too? i have no programing skills so porting would be way over my head.
have you had anyluck installing skyfire 1.5 or opera 10 on a wince device? also have you ever gotten finalburn to run on your wince devices?
search for MSCEInfEn
to create a new CAB look at this:

thx for the explication RAMMANN --
i plan to buy a windows ce '7" mini netbook' and i want to use all WM6/6 progs from PPC (if hardware supports it, of course)

New user of windows mobile

Hello
I have become a owner of a new htc touch 2 with windows mobile 6.5
a frend of mine has htc hd phone and also win 6.5 but he can use programs like command prompt, regedit, creating grups of contacts, I can't do eny of them how come ?
do I have to instal something to be able to use regedit etc... ?
Thanks
You need the right cab files for these programms.....they circulate here....but no reason why you can not what your friend can....
but regedit and command prompt are a part of the windows ? why would I need to explicity install it
Ah ok, understand to edit your registry you need a program like attached.....
but be careful.....any mistake can screw up your device.....and soft reset after making a chance.....
For command prompt look here.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2148175#post2148175
And if you do some searching you find programs to make groups in contacts.....
Have fun

Windows Mobile 6.5 is based on Windows Compact Embedded Edition, WindowsCE for short, We're not dealing with windows 7, or vista, or even XP, but what is essentially a very stripped down OS thats closer "related" to Windows 95. (anyone wanting to knit pick the previous statement, please note the inverted comma's. I know some people are very pedantic)
While Win95 had both said features, I just wanted to explain how limited 6.5 is, these are tools that WILL run on 6.5 but are not included.
