Could XPe, WINCE 5.0 and WINCE 6.0 be installed in a system ?

Dear Sir,

Because I must use XPe, WINCE 5.0 and WINCE 6.0 on my job, could it
possible install them in a system ?

BR,
Wiles

You want them on the same PC for development? It's theoretically possible,
but I would not do it. I don't have a lot of experience with Target
Designer, but I've done one project with XPe with it. It coexisted
reasonably well with CE4.2's Platform Builder. However, there are certainly
potential problems with CE5 PB and CE6 PB on the same system. Some people
have no problem (you must install CE5 *before* CE6), while others fool
around with trying to get them both to work for a while and finally give up.
Since time is usually a lot more valuable than hardware, I'd put each on a
separate system. In that way, you could, potentially, be doing a build with
each of the three at the same time with no interference between them. Pick
the one that you're going to be doing the most and have that one on your
main (or fastest), PC.

Dual boot the machine or use Virtual PCs. Don't spend the time trying to
get PB 5.0 and 6.0 working on the same machine - you might be one of the
lucky few it works for, but more likely it will lead to nothing but
headache, frustration and a complete repave of the machine anyway.

wow - i didnt know how lucky i was. Anyways, i would suggest to use wince 5.0
- use wince 6.0 after developing on CE 5.0.... unless u are doing driver
level stuff, u should not have any problems recompiling and testing on CE 6.
