5 Windows Embedded Standard 2009
5.1 General information
Windows® Embedded Standard 2009 is the modular version of Windows® XP Professional. It is used if XP ap-
plications should be executed with a minimal operating system size. Together with CompactFlash memory, Win-
dows® Embedded Standard 2009 makes it possible to use the Microsoft desktop operating system in harsh envi-
ronmental conditions. In addition to the familiar features included in Windows® XP Professional, Windows® Em-
bedded Standard 2009 has been improved with regard to dependability by adding a write filter for individual mem-
ory partitions. By protecting individual partitions such as the boot partition, the PC system can be started without
problems even after an unexpected power failure. B&R offers complete images for industrial PCs, Power Panel
and Mobile Panel devices to make the transition to Windows® Embedded Standard 2009 as easy as possible. In
addition to Windows® Embedded Standard 2009, the standard Windows® XP Professional operating system is
also available in English, German and a multilingual version.
Windows® Embedded Standard 2009 is based on the same binary files as Windows® XP Professional with Service
Pack 3 and is optimally tailored to the hardware being used. In other words, only the functions and modules required
by the respective device are included. Windows® Embedded Standard 2009 is also based on the same reliable
code as Windows® XP Professional with SP3. It provides industry with leading reliability, security and performance
improvements as well as the latest technology for web browsing and extensive device support.
