Hi,
I want to write System files in window CE Compact flash card so that it
boots from CF flash. The files are
1.Configuration file: bootcepc.cnf
2. Boot logo .pcx file: bootcepc.pcx
3. Kernel Image file (nk.bin)

To write i have just copied file's by copy and paste in Flash but it doesn't
work and i am getting error like "Boot failure" . I heard about a utility
named (makeCFUtility) used to write in Flash. But i don't know how to
download this utility.

Is there is any other way to write system files in Flash card.

I am using Advantech single board (PCM-3370 F) with 128 MB RAM . The OS used
is Window CE 5.0.

You can create a bootable flash card just like a usb drive, or dvd. there are articles written debating how to do it, but it's easier with Vista+.

Basically instead of copy, use xcopy with a few flags to copy the boot files.
