this would be great if only you could uninstall it afterward, microsuck designed it in such a brilliant way that you cannot uninstall it.

Thanks, works like a charm.

This week on Channel 9, Brian and Dan discuss the top developer news, including: - Windows 7 RC is available

Awesome, I was headed in this direction as well. Glad to know someone else tried it and it worked. Hopefully MS will put this driver up as a download for others who run into this.

quick note: I had to rename the setup.exe otherwise windows 7 wouldn't let me run it even to extract the msi file.

Windows 7's Program Compatibility Assistant is blocking execution of "setup.exe" because of "compatibility issues". This makes sense, but now I can't extract the MSI.

I don't have other 64bit non-win7 machines under my hand right now, and the 32bit package only contains 32bit drivers (obviously).

What are my other alternatives?

Hi, Brian

Thank you so much for your blog, very usefull for me.

I m Suwanna, I m a newbie to learn about VPC and I would like to learn about  Mobile Emulator too. I would like to run Mobile Emulator 6.5 to connect internet but it requires me to install VPC 2007 for virtual network driver and I have tried to do follow your instruction. Finally,i can install virtual network driver but when i open VPC and created new new one I got this message on DOS sceen "Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device"  

How could i fix this problem?.  Before i created the new machine i am sure i set it to be Window XP operating system.

Thank you in advance

Regards

Suwanna

Thanks for the reply,But  I have download Mobile Emulator 6.5 for test my website, I want to show my webpage on this device but it still asks me to install VPC 2007 for providing the network driver even though i have installed this driver from your instruction, what should I do?

Do you have the link to download WM6.5 SDK.?

Can I have it?

Thanks

Microsoft heeft een Windows Mobile 6.5 emulator beschikbaar gesteld en deze is hier te downloaden: http

didn't work. when i try to open a web site on IE on the emulator device says it cannot connect, then wants me to change my connection settings. what do i do?

Hi, when I try to add the service i get a "filters currently installed on the system have reached the limit"

I could not find anything on the Net for this problem.

hoz: I had the same problem. The PDA thinks that it is connected to a work network and not the Internet. You can go to Settings -> Connections Tab -> Network Card and change "My network card connects to" from Work to The Internet. If that does not work try installing vxutil and see if you are getting an IP address or can ping the gateway.

excelent info worked perfectly. Thank you

Thanks so much for this guide.  Worked great!!

Thanks a lots for the tutorial; works like a charm on Windows 7 final release

It's working perfect! Thanks :)

Thanks Bryan, it worked well until windows diagnostic removed my driver.

Just installed for the second time, no issues yet.

Works Well on WIndows 7 Enterprise.

Thanks again.

Great Tip.

Thanks! You helped me!

Didn't work for me :( .... I did everything according to the wonderful tutorial you wrote, which I am really thankful to you for.  However it didn't work out.  I am using VS 08, Win 7 x64, Win Mobile 6.1 SDK and I also installed WMDC and changed the required settings according to social.msdn.microsoft.com/.../1481b4d7-dc14-4089-8232-8fbb62bc80e5

However, once I run the emulator, I get the same notification message: Cannot connect with current connection settings.  To change your connection settings, click connect.

Can you help me, I have an urgent project, entirely based on sockets.  Please??

Hi...

I have Windows 7 - 64 bits, and Visual Studio 2008 Team Suite. I follow the tutorial step by step and works PERFECT.

Thanks a lot.

You tutaorial was great, one thing I want to do differently though.  

I do all my development in virtual machines.  I extracted the 32-bit version and installed it inside the XP Mode instance.  All seems to be working with the exception of the HTTP configuration.

GREAT. This is exceptional :D

These instructions plus the rest of the tedious steps on msexchangeteam.com/.../447033.aspx worked. Thanks!

P.S. I hope that the Windows Phone 7 Series SDK is more user friendly...

I'm running Windows 7 Enterprise x64. This worked with one change. I installed the driver from the x64 folder and I still couldn't connect from the emulator. I went back and installed the 32 bit driver and that fixed it right up.

Saved my day! Thanks!

One small warning: If you do not have admin permissions, the files will be extracted in the temp folder of the admin account entered.

Thank you so much! it works perfectly in Win 7 Pro 32b, I have the XP Mode installed but still I need the driver to run the WM 5 emulator. You saved my day!

This is a VERY well written document. Thank you very much. It works as advertised.

And one more thing.  Don't try ANY of this when connected VIA RDP.  For some reason, which I am sure I would find fascinating, you cannot bind to a NIC, using the Device Emulator Manager, when connect via RDP.

blah

And I knew this!
