hello
so i ll try you solution but :
how make a bootable storage card ? is a simple SD with a welcome.not
empty file on it working (in pratice, i put the SD in the pocketpc, i create
an empty file named welcome.not on it) ? even after a hardreset it will
bypass the calibrate/copy&paste/time zone screen ?
How write into registry value after an hardreset ? need i to create
another SD card with autorun.exe on it and insert it after the SD containing
the empty file welcome.not ?
i m new in pda at you can see, sorry
