Subject: AW: [iPAQ] Restoring WinCE

The problem is, I don't have a serial cable. I installed OPIE via CF-Card
(and CF-Jacket). Could anyone tell me how to restore WinCE that way,
please?

thx

Karl

You're quite right - the space bar is not one on a virtual keyboard. At
this point, the guide assumes that you are connected to the iPAQ through
a terminal emulator on a PC. You'll need a serial cable or cradle to do
this.

No worries :)
