Windows API

What has this got to do with Vista, nothing! Please post on the correct board and give more details of the problems you are having. Jonathan Wilkes Darka[Xanya.net]

Yes. Kevin

I use Home Premium myself. Home Basic should also work -- I haven't heard of any problems using Visual Studio it. Make sure the laptop has plenty of hard drive space and a couple gigs of ram if you're going to run development in Vista, especially if you're planning to use VS 2005 or Orcas.

Once you get into the screen for adding Windows components, there are a number of expandable branches. One is called Security (under World Wide Web Services). You'll find Windows Authentication in there, along with Basic and Digest Authentication. Let me know if that helps. :) Flynn If we can't corrupt the youth of today, the adults of tomorrow will be no fun...

Windows CE 5.0 never runs on top of a desktop version of Windows. Perhaps you mean that Windows CE 5.0 Platform Builder doesn't work? That doesn't surprise me because my own experience is that eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 (which uses the same development shell and Platform Manager as CE 4.x and CE 5.0 Platform Builder) does not work at all. As for other applications not working, there are plenty of cases where applications have relied on unspecified behaviour in Windows APIs, either accidental misuse or deliberately using undocumented features. In both cases any change to the underlying implementation can and will break code. This is true of any new version of Windows - it's just that it's been a long time since Windows changed this much. Also, in the pursuit of better security, I suspect Microsoft have added a lot more parameter validation to APIs, meaning that things you could previously get away with don't work any more. If you're developing anything with Windows CE 5.0 Platform Builder you should be aware that an awful lot changes for Windows CE 6.0, and a lot of the undocumented features commonly used in application code will no longer work. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

Thank you very much for your kindness. Just same as what I have thought.

Thanks for your help :) --PerspX "Nowadays, security guys break the Mac every single day. Every single day, they come out with a total exploit, your machine can be taken over totally. I dare anybody to do that once a month on the Windows machine." - Bill Gates

Thank you Mike :) I agree.. --PerspX "Nowadays, security guys break the Mac every single day. Every single day, they come out with a total exploit, your machine can be taken over totally. I dare anybody to do that once a month on the Windows machine." - Bill Gates

I think either your device is not working properly(lesser probability) else the codec pack has failed I mean got corrupted. Try analyzing if this cut-cut effect is with all formats of music(viz. mp3,.wma,.rma,etc.) or is with only one format specifically. This way we can capture the prob better. Since this is a branded system I don't think you would have Hardware compatibility or resource paucity issues. Please get back to us after a bit more analysis so that we can help you better There are only two kinds of people who are really fascinating-people who know absolutely everything, and people who know absolutely nothing.

Sven, Thanks for the info. I finally gave up and installed SQL instead of the Express version. We are testing services and they have to do Integrated Security. Thanks, Michael

Haha! yeah - fair point! :p --PerspX "Nowadays, security guys break the Mac every single day. Every single day, they come out with a total exploit, your machine can be taken over totally. I dare anybody to do that once a month on the Windows machine." - Bill Gates
