i-mate JasJar and .NET CF 2.0

Hi

In preperation for my chalk and talk session at the Microsoft Launch 05 event next week I stated using my i-mate JasJar for CF 2.0 development and was initially extremely frustrated when I got the following error:

“Installation error.  Stop all applications and process, maximize available storage space, and run install again.  Suport inf 4.”

That is until I found this post which helped me solve it:

http://groups.google.co.uk/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.compactframework/browse_thread/thread/2132b052a370c220/e73203a525e50d3b?lnk=st&q=deploying+CF+2.0+to+JasJar&rnum=1&hl=en#e73203a525e50d3b

Basically, the JasJar comes with three programs already installed.  One of these must be using a beta of CF 2.0 which causes the Visual Studio auto deployment of CF 2.0 proper to fail.  Once I removed all three programs everything worked beautifully.

If you're having the same problem I hope this help you avoid the hours and hours of wasted time I spent.
