Hi Michael,
I have developed the code in .NET 2010, sdk2.0 beta and Windows 7 targeting Surface2.0. But now I want to run that application on Surface 1.0. Firstly , Will it run?
I thought it won’t, so now I have loaded sdk 1.0 with the help of a crack on W7, and will work using .net 2008.
I want to know , if I develop app using these specifications, will my app run on Surface 1.0 successfully?

Hi Federico, I have also just started with 2010 from scratch. I have found the Item and ProjectTemplate at “C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Surface\v1.0\…” same place. Now where should i copy them in Visual Studio 2010 to get it in working form.

thanks, this helped me out of a never ending install/setup afternoon.
Except for the last part: I did not upgrade from VS 2008 but startet with 2010 directly. So, to copy Item- and ProjectTemplates I had to look elsewhere: found them under C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Surface\v1.0\…
Oh and one more thing for those who should wonder: that 1033 is a sort of language code, so those with VS using some other language shall use that other code (you will find it…along the path e.g. 1031 is german) in order to see those templates appear because 1033 won’t work.
