@hexaheximal yeah, with no decent #Apps, #WindowsPhone was worse than #WindowsMobile & #WindowsCE, because the ehole #UWP & #WindowsStore shitshow killed #WindowsPhone8 / #WindowsPhone10

Yesterday I posted here https://mas.to/@Judeau/116766638552246794 about being unable to source an old driver for a #PocketPC #Belkin #keyboard and I got to witness something quite special.

I had searched everywhere I could think of for the driver. Archive, Wayback, multiple old forums and PPC archives, even some Russian PPC sites and came up empty handed. There were no scans of the driver disc and none on Ebay to purchase.

Through the simple act of people "Boosting" my post, it found it's way to @samedwards who was able to source the driver tucked away on an obscure Asian website here https://d.richie-aa.top:5212/%E7%B3%BB%E7%BB%9F%E8%B5%84%E6%BA%90/Windows%20Mobile/%E9%A9%B1%E5%8A%A8/Keyboard%20Drivers/Belkin%20snap%20n%20type%20wm%202003

Thank you all so much! Mastodon is one incredible community!!!

SOLVED: [email protected] was somehow able to locate this driver! Thank you everyone and I will make a new post in the morning detailing everything and giving proper credit.

The other day I purchased a #Belkin #Keyboard for my PPC.

The model number is F8D0502 and it goes by two different names: SnapNType and Thumb Keyboard.

I have looked everywhere for a driver. I can only locate the manual on Archive and I found the old Belkin driver page on the Wayback but the file was never preserved.

Does ANYONE have access to the driver or the installation CD?

I am specifically needing one for the Dell Axim x50/x51.

ANY help is appreciated.

El modder Throaty Mumbo ha conseguido portar con éxito el Windows CE 2.11 a la arquitectura de la Nintendo 64. Utilizando un cartucho EverDrive 64 y controladores personalizados, el sistema permite manejar un escritorio funcional donde el mando de la consola actúa como ratón. El proyecto incluye soporte para sonido, gráficos básicos y la ejecución de aplicaciones desde tarjetas SD.

30 ans plus tard, Windows CE tourne sur Nintendo 64

La Nintendo 64 n’est pas morte ! Un bidouilleur s’est récemment amusé à installer Windows sur la vénérable console. Il utilise pour cela une cartouche spéciale permettant de lire une carte microSD et de charger Windows CE, une version datant de 1996 ...

🎮 Pause geek — Windows CE sur une Nintendo 64. Parce que visiblement, torturer du matériel rétro avec un OS que même Microsoft a oublié, c'est un sport de haut niveau. Le combo le plus inutile de 2025… et pourtant ça boot. Le geek qui a fait ça mérite une médaille et un suivi psychologique. 🏅

Running Windows CE On The Nintendo 64

Although Windows CE doesn’t use the NT kernel, it’s similarly designed to run on a wide variety of system architectures. Since the Nintendo 64 uses a MIPS CPU it should basically just r…

Ah, the pure genius of running a 90s OS on a 90s console—because who doesn't want to relive the *glorious* era of dial-up and clunky interfaces on an N64? 🤡🔧 Just when you thought the past was safely behind us, someone on GitHub decided it's time to bring Windows CE back from the dead for absolutely no reason. 🎮🕹️
