I still think they think of the C: as a drive letter.

That would surely be C:\Amie though

... and besides. I see myself more of a Z drive. Mysterious, underutilised and something you'll aim for your whole life and never achieve access to unless you netwok in

Mysterious, yes; underutilised, no. I would say the community has put you through your paces. You're as defragged as the next man

.........sorry 'bout that!!

Maybe I'll just shorten it to C:

Being a .cab file I guess it just gets copied to the Jornada and opened from there??

Can I just dump it on the storage card and open it or does it need to go into a specific directory??

I like putting things on the storage card and keeping the memory allocation slider adjusted so that I allocate 90% of the available memory for it to shuffle things around in.

I've downloaded the pdf viewer software also. I'm in the construction field and our architects issue drawings in pdf format.

.cab files are installer files http://www.hpcfactor.com/support/cesd/s/0047.asp
You can install TCPMP onto CF, GAPI you cannot.

Cheers C:Amie.

Will try it tonight and hopefully complete this thread with a successful conclusion!!

Gaz

........sorry guys.........

I've downloaded the TCPMP (Cab) file twice to my PC and tried to unzip it twice but it keeps failing.

I wanted to unzip it and just transfer the cab file over.

Is everything okay with it???


Gaz

.......hmmmmm?


I've tried again and it keeps saying it's an invalid archive???

Can anyone shed any light??

Many many thanks,

Gaz

tcpmp.arm_ce2.cab inflates from the zip fine for me. Purge your browser cache and download it again.

..........aha!

Re-tried with laptop at home and all is good. Must of been a problem with the firm's pc.

Cheers,

Gaz

Slight correction: you can choose a Storage Card as the installation folder for GAPI for HPCs. It'll still put the key file (gx.dll) in \Windows.

Useful to know. I tried it once many millennia ago and it didn't.

...really sorry guys but I'm like a dog with a bone!!

Got the .cab files extracted okay and read the "Readme" file. I tried two of the cab files with these results.
(I dropped one at a time in a directory called "TCPMP" on the storage card.
First, I tried the tcpmp.arm720_ce3.cab file. I got the message "The application cannot run on the device type".

Okay I thought, I'll try the other. Deleted the cab file that didn't work and dropped in tcpmp.arm_ce2 file.
Got the message "The programme is not compatible with the current operating system and there may not run on this device. Continue? Yes/No?"

(I didn't know whether to continue or not)

In the README file, it mentions TCPMP.ARM_CE3.CAB for windows CE 3.xx - 4.xx. Should I be using that??

My Jornada 720 says it's using Windows for Handheld PC 2000 and has Core System Version 3.0.

Even though it mentions this cab file in the README file, when the zip has extracted, it's not there.

Any thoughts guys??............I will be jumping for joy if I get this one sorted out.

All the best,

Gaz

Don't use the one labeled "ARM720" - that's a specific type of ARM processor, but not the one found in the 720. (The 720 has a StrongARM SA-1110 processor.) Yes, use the one just labeled "ARM." (Actually more than one - there are CABs for each of the codec plugins [FFMPEG, Speex, etc] as well, and you'll need those to play most types of video and audio.)

Just force install the ce2 one by clicking yes to the warning.
