SYMPTOMS
You install Microsoft Windows CE 4.x Emulator on a computer that is running Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2). The computer has Data Execution Prevention (DEP) hardware. You receive the following error message when you restart your computer:
Devices or applications disabled
‘Virtual PC/Windows CE Emulator‘ will cause Windows to become unstable. Windows has prevented these drivers from loading.
You may also receive the following error message when you try to start Windows CE 4.x Emulator:
Emulator for Windows CE
One or more files from the Emulator for Windows CE installation is missing. Please reinstall Emulator for Windows CE and try again.
CAUSE -- 原因
This problem occurs because Windows XP with SP2 does not allow the Virtual PC/Windows CE Emulator driver (VPCAppSv.sys) to load when hardware-based DEP is enabled. This is part of the Windows XP SP2 Driver Protection feature.
Note Physical Address Extension (PAE) mode must be enabled for DEP to work. Windows XP automatically enables PAE mode to support hardware-based DEP. You do not have to make an entry in the Boot.ini file to enable PAE mode.
