MyBoot allows you to start third-party applications on Windows CE and Windows Mobile based portable devices such as GPS systems, PDAs and smartphones which are not designed to do so (e.g. you don't have access to the 'Start' menu). These devices are not actually ‘locked’, as some people say – it is perfectly legal to install your own software on a device you own. You can use MyBoot to start programs like MAPLORER, or your own programs.

  • Windows Phone 8 is the second generation of the Windows Phone mobile operating system from Microsoft. It was released on October 29, 2012, and, like its predecessor, it features a flat user interface based on the Metro design language. It was succeeded by Windows Phone 8.1, which was unveiled on April 2, 2014. Windows Phone 8 replaces the Windows CE-based architecture used in Windows Phone 7 with the Windows NT kernel found in Windows 8. Current Windows Phone 7 devices cannot run or update to Wi.
  • This download is an incremental release to Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R2. If you do not have Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R2, you can also download an evaluation copy from the Microsoft Download Center. Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R3 provides innovative technologies that help device manufacturers create devices with rich user experiences and connections to.

Cabinet Installation - Automated Installation on Windows CE. By far the most common form of distribution for non-commercial software for Windows CE devices. The Cabinet file (.cab) under Windows CE is a system executive file. Cab files are specifically designed to act as highly compressed installation files.


How it works

Most GPS systems have a button to start the built-in navigation software, such as IGO, Destinator, etc. All this button does is start a program, such as MobileNavigator.exe for IGO. To be able to start other applications, all you have to do is to locate this application and replace it by your own. MyBoot allows you to do just that, keeping a copy of the original application. Then, pushing the button will start MyBoot instead of the built-in software, and it lets you choose what to do next – including starting the original software.

Installation

  1. Locate the application which is started when pushing the button you want to use on your GPS.

    It may be located on the external memory card that came with the GPS – the easiest and safest option.

  2. Rename the original application, e.g. from MobileNavigator.exe to MobileNavigator_Igo.exe

    The button should no longer work. Don’t panic, this is normal.

  3. Unzip the ZIP archive to an empty folder on your PC.
  4. Rename MyBoot.exe so that it has exactly the same name as the original application (e.g. MobileNavigator.exe – without the _Igo), and copy it to the place where the original application used to be. E.g., to

    MobileNavigatorMobileNavigator.exe in the case of IGO

  5. Edit the file MyBoot.ini file on your PC (you can start from the example provided). Each line corresponds to a button you can create.

    a. First, create a button allowing to start the original software, e.g. add a line like

    Button1 = '.MobileNavigator_Igo.exe'; IGO

    (the “.” At the beginning makes MyBoot look for the .exe in the directory where MyBoot is stored; IGO is the title of the button).

    b. Then, add buttons to start your additional applications. E.g. if you have one called “Maplorer.exe” in the directory Maplorer, in the external storage card SDMMC, add a line like

    Button2 = 'SDMMCMAPLORERmaplorer.exe'; Maplorer

    (the SDMMC indicates the external card, MAPLORER the directory containing the application, maplorer.exe the application).

    c. Optionally, you can add a line to start Windows explorer:

    Button4 = 'explorer'; Explorer

    (lines starting neither with nor with . allow to start system commands)

  6. Copy the modified MyBoot.ini file to the same directory where you copied MyBoot.exe (which is now renamed to something like MobileNavigator.exe)

Autostart

It is now possible to automatically start the first application in the list after a given period of time. Simply add a semicolon (';'), the word 'autostart' and the delay in seconds at the end of the first line of the .ini file (like in the example given in the .ZIP archive).


What if something goes wrong?

Note that all along the process, you never delete any files. Basically, you only rename the existing navigation application, and add a new file, which has the original name of that application. If something goes wrong, just delete the added file, and rename the application back to its old name. (Look at the time stamps if you get confused!)

To be really sure you’re not taking any chances by making some mistake, backup your memory card before starting.


What if still something goes wrong?

Well, it is of course always possible to make some stupid mistake and delete the wrong file… In this case, please don’t blame me. 

I was wondering if it was possible to use a USB drive (as in, boot from USB) to upgrade from Windows CE 6.0 up to Windows 7. I have searched online for a solution, but to no avail. I currently have a 'Wireless Book', made in China, running Windows CE 6.0, and currently using a flash drive with Windows 7 on it (made using Windows USB DVD Download tool). Thank you!

It is not possible! The first problem is the minimum hardware requirements to install windows 7. You can check Windows 7 system requirements (also below) where you will understand it is impossible for the range of devices using Windows CE 6.0.

  • 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor
  • 1 gigabyte (GB) RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit)
  • 16 GB available hard disk space (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
  • DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver

An embedded device must meet the following requirements to run Windows Embedded Standard 7 per Requirements for an Embedded Device (Standard 7 SP1). (also below)

  • 1 GHz x86 or amd64 processor with 900 mhz speed or equivalent
  • 512 MB of system memory (1GB recommended for amd64)
  • 1 GB free space on hard disk drive (HDD) or flash-based Solid State Drive (SSD) (4 GB recommended) At least one of the following bootable media types:
  • Bootable DVD-ROM drive
  • Bootable USB 2.0 port and a USB Flash Drive (UFD) with 4 GB of free space, or access to a local network

BIOS Supporting Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) 3.0

Also, another problem is the hardware architecture and CPU architecture. Check out Minimum Requirements for a Windows CE Board Support Package (pdf link. you can see some of the points below) and Windows Embedded CE 6.0 article on Wikipedia, so you can understand better how the system works, and therefore the machines that work on it.

CPU Requirements for Windows CE:

Windows Ce 8.0 Vnc

  • Windows CE-supported architecture (MIPS, X86, ARM, SH)
  • Memory management unit capable of 32-bit virtual memory (4GB)
  • 1MB of contiguous physical SDRAM
