I tried to install the embedded Windows Compact (Toradex Windows Embedded Compact 2013 1.5) through the easy installer on my board but it just fails

here is the failed install log.

This error only occurs for the windows images

Edit: Here i generated an extended log for the failed windows boot

It seems that the device is booting correctly.
You are probably not seeing any output on your display because, by default, Wince images are configured to show their output on the VGA display interface.
If you need to use a different one you need to change settings.
You can do that in the bootloader:

  • connect a serial terminal to UARTA (1152008N1)

  • stop boot process by pressing space and then “X” to enter the serial prompt

  • at this point you can change parameters in the ss config block structure to enable the display output you need. It’s documented here:
    Splash Screen on Toradex Computer on Modules | Toradex Developer Center
    For example if you need VGA on an HDMI interface you can do:

    set ss.out 5
    save ss
    reboot
