As the title notes, it will be a good ideea to focus our efforts in making this possible. Any ideeas are welcomed and in this stage I would like that users (who already tried installing XP on the Shift) write their experieces here.
Making some sort of driver for the touchscreen imput should be our first priority. If someone can find more specific informations about the touchscreen's controller and some chipset codes it would be a good place to start.
I'm waiting for my Shift to arrive (something like a week or so) in order to get the work started.
hey dude greetings,
I have installed a dual boot XP SP2 with OEM shift Vista successfully; however there are some anomalies; the obvious lack off graphics drivers, sound etc are there. I have managed to get drivers for most of the components; however the SDIO wireless card is not even detected BT is detected if you activate it first from Vista Shag then reboot back to XP. The weird thing is that no HID components are actually detected i.e. pen device etc. The monitor tab under device manager is interesting; it displays 3x 1024*768 digital lcd panel. I will try and a device dump of hardware ids and attach it to this thread; maybe that will give us a clue to controller chip sets.

those damn suckers at htc romania told me that my shift will be comming from sweeden and it will take another 2 weeks untill i get my own one. Untill then I have nothing to play with and experiment.
In order to get the support for wlan and touchpad I think the first test would be to see if we can port the drivers from vista to the xp part of the device. Furthermore, there are some HTC made management programs that need to be implemented in xp if we're going to ask for more.
Thanks for the hardware ID's, I'm waiting for my unit to come and untill then I'll try to collect as much info as possible.

I have used the vista drivers for G sensor on the hard drive, the graphics and sound drivers dont appear to work with XP, however this may be the inf file as apposed to the bins. The proble is I have the drivers for the SDIO wifi but XP dosent see the hardware, I have forced the drivers on in a hope to see if the OS responds but it doesnt work. The touch pad works, the pen or touch screen does not work and again like the wifi driver it does not appear to be detected by the OS. I have been unable to force the vista HID pen driver to XP as in add hardware there is no option for this (HID device) I guess the OS needs to detect it. Looking through the scan of the pci bus it appears HTC have not yet added there vendor id to the PCI Vendor and Device Lists which is a bit weird Over the weekend if I get a chance I might try to have a look at the vista drivers (dlls) to see what is in them. Also the Shag control service does not appear to like installing or running on XP which could be a bit of a bummer. Although I think Comonex has rei the Shag bins so i am pretty confident Comonex might be able to help us getting that working on XP. I just trying to figure out how to get the OS to at least detect the missing hardware.
thanks faisal.husain for working in this direction.
The key with touchscreen recognised is to have Shag program made compatible with xp. Unlike tablet pc's this device seems to operate bluetooth, wlan and HID devices in a more "pocket pc" manner. They are simply powered off when not in use, ore not connected. This is a hardware based situation and the role of the Shag thing is to power them in order to have the operating system see them. So from what I hear from you I thinks trying to have the Shag compatible with XP is another place to start. The inf files would be easily made compatible with xp then...

Wow. Time to move to XP is near....
I got everything working except the Touchscreen IIRC (and the shagctrl).
Stupidly I didn't save the driver links, but I think the TouchScreen is the big one we need to worry about.
I installed alongside Vista, and so for one of the devices that I couldn't find I just pointed it at c:\windows\inf for the driver, that was one of the 'HTC' system devices.
I even got the external ethernet working too.
If someone can get the touchscreen working, i'll dig out the other links.

Yeah I got to the same position too, but failed on the Touch part.

just to confirm, are you saying that you got the Wifi, SD, and BT devices working under XP?
and the ONLY device that isn't currently working under XP is the touchscreen?

I got mine already a month ago from HTC Romania.
I cannot say I am superhappy with the Shift, but their service is OK. They helped me quickly and professionally with a problem I had with the touchscreen.
Was my mistake anyway by putting it on too fast.
Huib
P.s. I even may consider selling it and take this P1620 Fujitsu.
As a future buyer of Shift.. what didn't you like about the device? Putting the not so good battery life aside.
It seems by the time i get my own shift, people here will have already sort out most of the problems and I will be left without job

Too much hassle with the small screen. I use fingers for browsing one time, then I need the stylus another time.
I have a continuous battle when browsing the internet or reading pda files etc.
I use a lot of Google tools, like Calendar and docs.
I must say the software helps a lot, but still. The F11 key does not exist, so I have to find a solution to switch full screen.
Now, pls believe me on my word: I have no commercial or emotional motives to say this: But I think I go for the somewhat bigger/faster Fujitsu P1620. I know the screen does not work well with fingers but that is the only disadvantage. I need those two inches real estate more.
But I repeat: It can be my age. I wanted the shift mainly for my boring, long, economy class flights. A normal portable can not be folded out, because the chair in front of you can be put down.
And I was hoping for a working XP. I have a lot of software that I do not want to buy once more, like the old Office 2003.
This disk, with Vista, keeps spinning and spinnging, even with indexing switched off. VLC player has a battle to play normally. It works now, but..
But maybe I will change my mind.
When I have
1. An extra battery
2. a 32 gigabyte SD card.
3 And..... thanks to you guys, a really working Winmo with Wifi, synchronising outlook, SD card OK etc etc.

Do you have problems running Office 2003 under Vista? Normally it runs fine.
I have an Alienware m17 r1 with the Core 2 Extreme Q3000 processor and the ATI Mobility Radeon HD3870X2 graphics card.
Let me start off by saying that Windows Vista works great with no issues at all.
Windows 8: Has a probelm that when I resume from sleep (open the laptop lid) everything just goes bizerk. I can't log in because the screen keeps on flickering on and off and what not. So I have to manually power down and reboot to get things working straight. After a reboot or fresh boot, everything works perfectly including games and stuff. It is important to not that there are no graphics card drivers for my graphics card for Windows 8, but as you will see with how Windows 7 acts, I don't think thats the issue.
Windows 7: I thought Windows 8 was what was causing the issues, so I downloaded a copy of Windows 7 Enterprise trial. Everything worked fine, I installed all the Windows 7 drivers for my laptop including the most up to date graphics card drivers. I closed the lid, opened it again, and bam, Aero stops working. And I can't fix it. And I also can't use the IE or some other applications. So I reinstalled Windows a few more times once without any graphics drivers except for the Windows one and once with the Alienware provided Windows 7 drivers and still the issue occurs. It also occurs after a fresh boot withouth logging in, closing the lid, and opening it and logging in.
I'm not exactly sure what it going on, although I'm sort of ruling out graphics drivers because in Windows Vista everything works perfectly. I was thinking about disconnecting the CrossFire cable to see if one of my graphics cards is the one having any issues, but I wanted your input first to see what the problem might be.
Other m17 owners seem to have Windows 7 running smoothly, but in my case its just not working.
I should also note that the first time I installed Windows 8, I used up the whole harddrive and eveything was working fine. And then a week later that issue started to happen. I then installed Windows Vista and everything was back to working order. I then decided to dualboot Windows 7 and Aero would just turn off after resuming from sleep. I haven't tried Installing Windows 7 on the whole harddrive yet because I don't think that would fix anything. Currently I'm back to Windows Vista on the whole harddrive. I also have a different BIOS that allows overclocking installed, but the system is not overclocked but rather undervolted from 1.2 to 1.186 if I remember correctly.
Here are the complete specs of the system from My Alienware PC Information:

Sounds like Hibernate is causing the issue. Try turning it off
Open Command Prompt (run as administrator) and type
powercfg hibernate /off

That didn't fix it. I reinstalled Windows and tried it.
Actually that command didn't help. I used powercfg -h off . I tries both on and off and Aero still disables. This is in Windows 7 by the way.

Do a clean uninstall of your video drivers with something like driver sweeper then reinstall the latest ATI drivers.
If you've tried drivers id strongly suggest you start the way all "odd" tech issues are diagnosed.
Rip out anything none essential, including cross fire, bare bones and start from scratch.
If that works then start adding stuff back in.
if it didn't work then your issue is in whats left, most likely graphics or Moby related, but get back to us after doing the above and we'll go from there.

I had already tried all that driver stuff before.
Since it's a laptop, I decided to remove the CrossFire cable to no avail and then I started realizing that CrossFire wasn't actually working to begin with. I had noticed it before, but I didn't investigate further. I tried to reseat the CrossFire cable multiple times to no avail. The one time it did work, I restarted the computer and the second card disappeared.
So I hit some other forums for more info and one said that if I was having CrossFire issues, I should flash a different BIOS. So I flashed the stock Alienware BIOS and bam! Aero got fixed. So that got rid of that problem. Although I'm still stuck with no CrossFire. Removing the cable and putting it back in 10 or so times will get the second card to show up and then disappear again after a restart. According to my understanding, two cards have to show up in device manager when CrossFire is "working". So thats the only problem I have now, otherwise I've been using Windows 7 Enterprise for 2 days now playing Saints Row: The Third for a solid 5 hours with no crashes or anything. Although I'm still missing out on the performance of the second card.
Any ideas to troubleshooting this?

Possibly the drivers?
I have three different machines with sort of similar problems. The Aero basically ****s up. It seems to be an issue with the latest ATI Drivers. I am using the version 11 I believe not the latest. That seems to be helping.

In Windows Vista the latest drivers worked fine. I haven't tried the latest ones on this computer yet, but my desktop does have the latest and it works just fine.

Oh, I should have mentioned that I am running windows 7 on all three.
