I hate to ask the obvious, but I will anyway. I just installed it and it
works fine on my WM2003 ipaq. When you ran the registry.bat batch file to
set up the emacs registry entries, did you edit it first to correctly
reflect the location you installed the emacs files to, and did you double
check your edits for errors?

In the "set emacsdir=..." line, DO NOT put quotes around the path, even if
the path contains spaces.

In all the cereg lines, put/leave quotes around the paths.

Check all the paths are valid.
