Chapter 3 Windows CE Setup
This chapter explains Steps 5-8 for a variety of mobile computers based on Windows CE. Before starting Steps 5-8, be sure to complete Steps 1-4, covered in Chapter 2, Preliminary Setup.
Because the interface for different Windows CE-based mobile computers varies, some parts of this chapter will be divided into sections based on Windows CE device type.
The two device types include:
•Pocket PC Devices
(i.e., Pocket PCs and Pocket PC 2002s)
•Palm-size and Handheld PC Devices
(i.e., Palm-size PCs, Handheld PC 2000s, Handheld PC Pros, and pen tablets)
Warning! Pocket PCs are not the same as Palm-size PCs! Setup differs for the two mobile computers!
Pocket PCs and Pocket PC 2002s are based on Windows CE v3.0, while Palm-size PCs are based on Windows CE v2.11. If you are not sure whether you have a Pocket PC or Palm-size PC, you can find out by identifying what Windows CE version your mobile computer has. This is sometimes labeled as the Core System Version.
To determine the Windows CE version, go to either:
•Start Settings System. On some mobile computers, you may need to click on the About icon.
•Start Settings Control Panel System. In the System Properties screen, click on the System tab.
