Missing Windows CE Services

[Bruce A. Johnson]

Error out of the blue.

When trying to run my Microsoft Streets & Trips 2002, it says that the
installation is corrupt, and to reinstall from the CD.

I run setup from the CD, and I get the error message:

"We were not able to locate the Microsoft Windows CE Services
Application Manager. Please make sure that you have Windows CE
Services installed and then try again."

Can anyone help me to solve this problem? Hopefully without
reinstalling Win XP!

Make sure that your are installing the correct version. I believe that
Streets & Trips may be sold with both a Windows and Windows CE versions on
the same CD.

Windows CE is a special version of Windows for mobile devices (cell phone,
PDA, palm-size PCs!)

It turns out that my Microsoft Works had the two Microsoft Streets &
Trips CDs mislabled. The one that was labeled "Pocket" version was on
the "Desktop" CD, and visa versa.

Thanks Yves!
