2 common questions for wince installation on TQ6410

[esky-sh]

At the moment, I'm trying to put WinCE 6.0 on the TQ6410 I bought
from you.

First question, there is a 4-switch on the board to control
the boot. I didn't find the meaning of this switch in the PDFs coming with
the CD, I placed the switches 1 and 2 at off and the switches 3 and 4 at
on, they were like this when the board arrived, is it correct ?
Do you
have a document with their meaning ?

Second question, I used DNW.exe and
tryed to send NK.nb0 on the board as described in the PDF. Unfortunately,
now, WinCE is not launching and the startup menu in DNW.exe doesn't appear
anymore when the board starts. When I start the board and connect to the
port COM, the message 'OK' comes into DNW. Did the NK.nb0 deleted the start
menu? What can I do?
This is a big problem since I cannot access anymore
to the menu which permits to send the images.

Following your instructions for installing WinCE on the TQ6410, I am still not able to launch WinCE correctly.

Here is the procedure I followed, with the pictures enclosed, could you tell me where the error is?

Your instructions on the forum were:

For wince installation on TQ6410, here are recommend steps:
1. Switch to nor boot mode and power cycle - Done succesfully
2. Install u-boot in nand flash - Done succesfully
3. Switch to nand boot mode and power cycle - Done succesfully

And then:

4. Install nboot - Seems to work
5. Install wince .nb0 image and power cycle - WinCE doesn't work as expected

So I did the following (I have a TQ6410 with the 7 inches screen):

- Go into DNW.exe and choose the options 115200, COM 1 and 0x50100000 for UART/USB. (Picture 1)

The LCD screen doesn't emit light and there is nothing more happening from this step.

Where Is the problem?

Did I choose the correct files for the 7-inch screen?

Thank you in advance for your answer,

seems like wince lanuched successfully but you have problem with your LCD displaying, according your pictures and description.

you can double check the LED blinking on your TQ6410 board, either you can ping to your TQ6410 board by ethernet port. Wince should work normally already.

right now we should figure out the reason why 7"LCD not display.
do you have any other LCD display like 3.5"?
