Installing Update Rollup 1.0 for Windows XP Embedded on Windows Vista

5/10/2007

When installing Update Rollup 1.0 for Windows XP Embedded on Windows Vista machines, please observe the following recommendations:

  • When installing the component database on Windows Vista machines, do not install MSDE. Instead, please download the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition from this Microsoft Web site and follow the installation instructions provided in the download.
  • Change the default instance name of SQL Express 2005 to MSSQLSERVER during setup to ensure that the installed embedded studio tools work with the database.
  • To run the development tools on a Windows Vista machine, run the programs as the Local Administrator. For more information, please see the topic Running Embedded Studio Tools on Vista in the Windows Embedded Studio for Windows XP Embedded documentation.
