I installed the SP1 cab on a WinCE 4.2 device. I copied a simple 2.0
form app to the device and it worked. I copied a 2.0 mobile Direct3D
app to the device and it gave me an error "Could not initialize
Direct3D." I noticed SQL Server Mobile Edition will be supported.
Does anyone know which API's will or won't be supported in WinCE 4.2
with SP1?
 
As far as I remember D3D support was added with CE 5. CE 4.2 CAB contains
D3D stub which can do some math but nothing else.

Even if you upgrade your device to CE5, you would need D3D capable video
drivers and probably hardware 3D accelerator.



Basic answer to your question is: NETCF V2 SP1 won't support whatever's not
supported by the OS.
