In the Name box, enter MyOSDesign as the name for your OS design.
In the Path box, accept the default location, which is %_WINCEROOT%\PBWorkspaces\MyOSDesign, and then choose Next.
From the list of available board support packages (BSPs) installed on your development workstation, select EMULATOR: X86 and choose Next.
