Looking into this, it seems that for my MP770 I would need Gigabar 1.0? The couple of download links I found for this are broken. Does anyone know where I can find the file?

www.gigabar.com is no more (or down).

Thanks,
jodi

Thanks, Amie. I promise, that's the first place I looked

The problem is that I install via a CF card, and the 1.58 install does not place the .cabs in the active sync folder so that I can copy them. I though maybe the older 1.0 version might do that.

Thanks, again C:Amie.

I still can't find the cab. I looked in windows/system/temp. The install says my PPC device should be connected as though there is a direct install to the unit.

Double click the .exe so that the screen where you select which bits you want to install is up.

There will be a folder underneath c:\windows\temp or c:\documents and settings\<user>\local settings\temp which has the cabs in it

When I click the .exe, I get the "This will install Gigabar to your PPC", etc.

There are four check boxes, all ticked, then "install" and "cancel". I click "install."

"Pending applications install" is shown, and I click OK.

"On the next mobile connection, the installed applications will be downloaded to the device", I click ok. There are no programs listed in the "add/remove programs" window. "Install programs into the default installation folder" is ticked, but the folder isn't listed, and I can't untick it.

Maybe this has something to do with my version of active sync, 3.8.

It's recommended that you install all the bits of the puzzle, yes

Your help is much appreciated. This is an amazing site. I've been totally absorbed in it since last weekend when I started trying to pump up my handheld.

I really do try to figure stuff out for myself first. But I'm still an H/PC baby.

That's alright, you demonstrated that you looked for the files, so I'm (we're) more than happy to assist you.

You know we'll neber let you leave, right?

Enjoy your device, and enjoy being the baby. People don't tend to stay the latter for long, not around here at least
