How to speedup the boothing time of wince

[Abhijit D. Babar]

Hi,
I have a appliction runing on win ce 6.0. I already deploy a nk.bin
on target platform and boot target from hard disk. When i start target
device, its booting time is very high. Device take a much time to boot
and load the image. How can i speed up the booting process. I want to
boot device within few of seconds.
Also when i start the target device, the application start
automatically. How can i do this.

Please help.....

How slow is it now? How big is nk.bin? You're loading the image from hard
disk to RAM in your bootloader?

The information on starting an application on startup is repeated over and
over in the archives. Use GoogleGroups to look it up.

http://groups.google.com/groups/dir...soft.public.dotnet.framework.compactframework

Also note that, if your application is a .NET Compact Framework application,
I would not recommend using the Init key method to start it; too much of the
actual operating system structure may not be ready by the time such a
program starts and, while that's fine for a native code application, it's
not good for managed code.

Note, also, that posting a "how do I make my boot time faster" question to
the .NET CF group isn't really the best place. The Platform Builder group
makes a lot more sense. microsoft.public.windowsce.platbuilder.

You're in the wrong group. A few of us here know the answer, but posting it
here simply gets it lost and encourages off-topic posting. Try asking over
in microsoft.public.windowsce.platbuilder.
