Prerequisites for Installing Windows Embedded CE 6.0:
1. The PC must have Windows XP Service Pack 2 running.
2. Microsoft Visual Studio 8 IDE must be installed.
3. Make sure you have at least 10GB space in any drive, where Windows CE 6.0 will be installed.
The files required to download are:
1. Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Evaluation Version -- Setup.exe
2. Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Platform Builder Service Pack 1.msi
3. For Windows CE 6.0 R2 -- CE6R2.iso and setup.exe
4. For Windows CE 6.0 R3 -- CE6R3.iso and setup.exe
For Downloading Windows CE 6.0 click here. Then you can see the first setup.exe. Download it and then scroll down to find "What Others Are Downloading", there you can find steps 2, 3 and 4 to download. Download all the files mentioned above for complete installation. Keep the four parts of the download in four different folders for reducing confusion (you can name each folder steps 1 through 4).
Now after all these files are downloaded, its time to install Windows CE 6.0. Here are the steps:
1. Run the setup.exe of step1. This is to install Platform Builder. Installing wince is just like installing any other software on Windows XP. The only window which is to be understood is shown below:
This window shows the available BSPs and some wince components/code which can be installed. Make sure to include the Shared Source, which is marked as X. Also a list of BSPs are given as an option for installation. ARMv4I which is the BSP for Emulator, is by default marked as 'yes'. If required you can select any other also (eg. x86 or MIPS).
2. The second step of the installing process is to install the Platform Builder Service Pack. Just run the Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Platform Builder Service Pack 1.msi file and the rest is easy.
3. Third step is to install 'R2'. Since the ISO file is already downloaded, just run the setup file and follow the instructions and you are done.
4. Similarly, for the final step, i.e. installing 'R3', just run the setup and follow the instruction.
Hence, by following these simple steps your Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Real Time OS Evaluation Version is ready and configured for usage. Now you can develop real time applications and driver as per your requirement.
