windows ce 5.0

so my dad bought a new net book that was cheap as "Watch your language", as of right now I am using it. it has windows ce 5.0 but I am have never heard of this OS, it was made for mobile devices and is encrypted into the computer it's self, so I can't change that.

the problem is. when i change the setting it doesn't save after i shutdown and turn it on. I've googled it but theres nothing that helps. I'm woundering if it's the software or if it's the netbook.

it's a delstart mini netbook that cost like $125

Yea...your kind of going to need it to connect to the internet and use the netbook like a netbook.

Like you could reformat the drive and install DSL ("Watch your language" small linux) or OS of the nature but it will be a bear to get on the internet.

I only use the internet so it's fine with me, he got it because of the price and thought it would be decent, it works for me it gets me here and to other sites, and most documents I make go to google docs.

I just want the settings to be saved like the volume, I don,t want to wake up everybody in my house at night. and the xp screen saver needs to go.

it just wont save the settings

Yeah that stupid "BING BONG BO BING!!" at startup is always really loud >.<

yep it is, and on this netbook you have to be actully log and be at the desktop to change it theres no external volume deal. thats really all I want to save also the task bar, it does this thing were when you move the mouse down it comes up, but when you move the mouse away it goes back down, I want that to stay so does my dad. otber then that, I'm going to buy myself one this pay check, and my next pay check I'll buy the rest of my AS "Watch your language", since it will be around 250 to 300 dollars.
