Installation Instructions

Before installing the current toolkit, you must uninstall any previous versions of the Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++. Previous versions include version 1+, or any version 2.0 betas. Install the products in the following order:
1. The Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++ 5.0
2. The Windows CE for Dreamcast SDK
3. The SH4 IDE Enhancement Pack. 

To install the Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++ 5.0, run Setup.exe from the VCCE20\VCCE directory on this CD. This will launch the Windows CE Tookit for Visual C++ setup. Once the setup for the toolkit is completed, it will launch the setup for the Windows CE Platform SDK and Windows CE Services. Do not install the Windows CE Platform SDK and Windows CE Services.

To install the SH4 IDE Enhancement Pack, run Setup.exe from the SH4IDE subdirectory on this CD.

To install the Windows CE for Dreamcast Beta SDK, run Setup.exe from the Setup_WCESDK\Disk1 subdirectory on this CD.

To complete the installation, point the SH4 IDE Enhancement Pack at the correct Include and Library files provided by this beta version of the Dreamcast SDK. 

Uninstalling the SH4 IDE Enhancement Pack

Installing the SH4 IDE Enhancement Pack creates a new uninstall shortcut called Uninstall Dreamcast IDE for Visual C++.  This shortcut replaces the Uninstall Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++ 5.0 shortcut.   Users can, and should, still remove the SH4 IDE Enhancement Pack  before the Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++ 5.0. Both the Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++ 5.0, and the Windows CE SH4 IDE Enhancement Pack can be removed by going to Control Panel, then choosing Remove.   When uninstalling the Windows CE SH4 IDE Enhancement Pack, you should also uninstall the Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++ 5.0.
