I am in the process of evaluating CE 6 for a new small device project
It is my first time with CE (I have successfully built Embedded XP but want to see the differences as CE is cheaper and may be better suited)
I would like to try of my software on CE and want to initially try it on standard size laptops before I start the process of building for a specific small device
I have built some CE 6 images with Platform Builder
After some initial issues I now get "nk.bin" images ok but I have no luck at all in getting over a "jumping to 0x00226d10" message when I try to run the image (from a dos diskette I created using the Platform Builder tool) - it seems to start displaying a number of lines, then gets the "jumping" display
I have tried various builds on 3 different laptops (different makes/models) - absolutely no difference, same message
I have seen various tips on forums and have actted on several - no joy. The most common tip is to use vesatest to test and then adjust the screen resolution in the loadcepc command - no difference (except size of the "jumping" message). If that was an issue would it not know how to display anything?
I see some tips about playing with config.bib. Surely this is built as a default? I do not configure anything special - I just want a basic CE system up and running on a standard laptop - is it possible without a specific device? I have tried several types, custom,
small footprint and thin - no difference, same message
Can anyone help?
Thanks
