Using VS.Net 2005 or 2008. I receive this error message when trying to
connect to or deploy to an ARM based CE 5.0 device through VS or any of its
accompanying tools. I can connect to the device via ActiveSync however.
I've tried re-installing Active Sync even VS 2005 with no luck. Searching
groups for this message only resulted in a few vague references to RPC but
no direct references to CE
 
My guess is that the CoreCon version on teh device does not match that on
teh PC. Make sure you have the latest SP of VS on the PC, then manually
copy the corecon bits to the device from the PC.

Chris,
I thank you for your fast response. I had wanted to try out what you
suggested much earlier, but unforturnately got buried with a ton of other
stuff. I will try this at the first opportunity and let you know.

thanks
 
Hey, I just got to try it and Voila!. I suppose the PB projects we use to
make the nk.nb0 will have to updated?

Thanks again.
 
Yes, or you have to manually deploy it every thime. I just store the proper
ones in persistent storage on all my dev machines, so it's not really an
issue.

I do the same as Chris, copying the files to the device. You never know
when VS2010 is going to come out with a new version and those files stuffed
into your nk.bin are going to be obsolete, but not so easy to remove as ones
stored in a flash filesystem or on a storage card...
