deployment issue

Hi,

I have developed an app for Win mobile based pocket PC and it is working
good. Now I am having trouble deploy it as a regular app. I am using
InstallShild Express to make the setup file. For Windows Mobile based Pocket
PC, could anyone help me with the most appropriate "processor type" to be
specified? My pocket pc is Qtek.

Regards,

You processor is ARM.

Hi Eugene,
thanks for the ack.
But there are more than one ARM processsors listed in the wizard dialog, the
list is this [[ ARM 720; ARM 820; ARM 920; StrongARM-XScale ]]. I slelected
all of them and built the setup. Also I selected the "Generate the
Autorun.exe" option in the last dialig of the wizard. Then if I use the
autorun.exe in the 2577 folder, on the phone(used activesync to transfer),
the exe file does not run on the phone. Also it does not run on windows(says
it is not a valid windows 32 bit exefile)

Thanks

Microsoft defines the Pocket PC, and has said that Pocket PC runs only
on ARM-compatible CPUs (starting with Pocket PC 2002).

Thanks guys for the response.
I got sick of InstallShield and finally got it done using the ezsetup.exe
freeware. It was tedious to follow the procedure of carefully formatting the
inf and ini files, but in the end, it worked. Also the example project
AppInst , MSDN reference for inf and ini files were of much help...
