Will MegaTunix work on Windows CE?

Post by TheSilverBuick »

Has anyone tried to run MegaTunix on Window's CE? I have a small computer with a USB port I think I'll try loading this on to. I just want to view engine data with it and curious if someone has tried it and if there were any pitfalls. Thanks.

MS2/extra 3.1.x

Not likely as windows ce is known as Windows Crippled Edition.... You'd be better off trying a lightweight linux distro on it instead.

Thanks. I just got the thing and I have to agree about the "Crippled Edition" reference.

The main problem with devices like that is their wimpy specs esp in the ram department... which can make it hard no matter what os you use
