Recover Jump Start Kit’s Original Files
The Vortex86DX-MSJK jump start kit includes a Compact Flash preconfigured to boot to Microsoft DOS
6.22 and includes the necessary files to launch the prebuilt CE 6.0 OS runtime images from local storage,
or Ethernet bootloader to download CE 6.0 OS runtime image from the Platform Builder development
workstation.
Vortex86DX-MSJK Preconfigured Files
The following files are preconfigured in the root of the Compact Flash’s FAT16 file system:
•
Loadcepc.exe
This is a DOS bootloader for Windows Embedded CE. It can be used to launch a CE 6.0 OS runtime
image from the local storage. It can also be used to launch the Ethernet bootloader, Eboot.bin, to
establish connectivity with the Platform Builder development workstation and download runtime
image from the development workstation to the target device.
•
Nk.bin
This is the prebuilt CE 6.0 OS runtime image for the jump start kit.
•
Vesatest.exe
This utility is used to check the system’s supported VESA video display mode.
•
Eboot.bin
This is the Ethernet bootloader. It’s launched by Loadcepc.exe to establish connectivity with the
Platform Builder development workstation and download Windows Embedded CE OS runtime image
from the development workstation to the target device.
•
Himem.sys
This is a DOS device driver to enable DOS to use memory beyond the original 640K limitation, also
refer to as extended memory region.
Note:
For MS-DOS 6.22 and Windows 98 DOS, the Loadcepc.exe bootloader requires Himem.sys to
function.
When using Windows Millennium DOS, Himem.sys is not needed.
•
Autoexec.bat
This is an auto execution batch file executed by DOS when the system starts. The file is in ASCII text
format and can be viewed or edited using any text editor.
•
Config.sys
This is the system startup configuration file. The file is in ASCII text format and can be viewed or
edited using any text editor.
The above preconfigured files are provided on the CD-ROM that comes with the jump start kit, in
the following directory:
\MSJK_Files
Recover Damaged Files
To recover deleted file or damaged file system for the Compact Flash, you can perform one of the
following (An USB to Compact Flash adapter is needed):
•
If the Compact Flash is still able to boot to DOS, copy the file(s) from the jump start CD, in
the “MSJK_Files” directory, to the Compact Flash’s root, overwritten the existing file(s).
