Using Windows Mobile Device Emulator with Windows 7

Hy

To run the Windows Mobile 6.5 Device Emulators you have to get the Emulator Images first. You’ll find them at: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=20686a1d-97a8-4f80-bc6a-ae010e085a6e

Furthermore a Mobile without network connectivity is quite boring. But the “Virtual Machine Network Driver” isn’t available as single download any more. So you have to download the Virtual PC 2007 Setup at: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=04d26402-3199-48a3-afa2-2dc0b40a73b6&DisplayLang=en

But it’s not necessary to install it. Just follow the steps as Brian Peek describes at his blog: http://www.brianpeek.com/blog/archive/2009/05/02/windows-virtual-pc-and-the-microsoft-device-emulator.aspx

After that you can bind your Emulator Image to your network card and use it for what ever you want 🙂

  1. Hello,

    I have windows 7 64bit edition and I want to run windows mobile 6.x and wondered if I can configure the emulator activesync to transfer files with windows 7?

    Also, are there more detailed instructions for installing and running the emulator under virtual pc?
