Windows Embedded Standard 7 Hands-on 2 day workshop
Summary
Day 1: Hands on Workshop where you gain experience with Windows Embedded Standard 7 and its tools via the official Microsoft curriculum. Bring a laptop with 20 GB of free HDD space, so that you can run the workshops hands-on, in a virtual environment.
Day 2: Bring along your own Embedded board/PC/HW, and run up an image on your hardware. This second day allows you to walk away with a running image, to fast track your project. Day 2 is less structured, and lets you build/troubleshoot at your own pace.
Target Audience
If you’re building a 32-bit X86 or 64-bit X64 based device with Windows 7, but would like better control over the operating systems image size, what features are included, and how to build an embedded image quickly. Ideally suited for: Digital Signage, Kiosks, Factory automation solutions, POS solutions, Test and Measure, and Monitoring and control devices.

Note: While this is a lot of content to get through, the idea is to share as much information as possible to help you understand what Windows Embedded Standard 7 can do. This means that if we spend more time on one topic, because the bulk of the audience is interested in that, we may not get to cover other topics.
Parking
Only public parking provided at commercial stations.
Pre-Requisites
You must bring a working Windows laptop with its power adaptor. You must have Remote Desktop Client installed (note: installed in all versions of Microsoft Windows) 20GB of free HDD space for loading of the Virtual PCs with the development tools installed. In addition, you will need a minimum of 2GB RAM to get acceptable performance from the Virtual Machines used for the labs. You should also install Virtual PC from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx if you are running Windows 7 on your laptop. Note that it’s not necessary to install Windows XP Mode so you can download and install Windows Virtual PC without XP Mode. If you are running Xp Pro or Vista, then you should install Virtual PC 2007 from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/support/virtual-pc-2007.aspx No spare laptops or workstations will be available. Participants are required to have a basic knowledge of computer hardware terms and be competent with the Windows user interface and Windows desktop operating system.
