Any list of games that work with HP Jornada 680?

HAHA! Mine was literally $4 shipped from China. I had trouble even finding a driver for it ! Mine has NO name on it. But the model # is PS810-105B.

One thing i can say is i had to try 4 different drivers before i found one that worked. Check to make sure there isnt something show a yellow exclamation mark in the HW. Mine seemed like it installed the drivers correctly but then id check here and itd still have USB device that was NOT installed. So you may want to try some different drivers.

Can you please send me the link for the same exact cable you have where you bought it from - the game fox

Also try this:
To find the list of hardware IDs for a given device, follow these steps:
Open Device Manager.
Find the device in the tree.
Right-select the device and select Properties.
Select the Details tab.
In the Property drop-down, select Hardware Ids or Compatible Ids.

Let me know what the hardware ID shows


Also: if you’re in Madrid Spain , I’ll be there in a few weeks. I can bring my usb serial adapter that works if we can’t figure this out with your existing adapter

I will try another drivers as you say, WallyB110, because (probably) the ones included in the installation CD are not so good.

And, don't you worry, Torch, I'm sure that all troubles are caused by me, in some of the steps during installation or similar. The cable works, but making the adapter be recognized was what cost me the most until it appeared as COM, so I think there's the problem.

I'll check the HW ID as soon as I return from work today

Aniway, if you come to Madrid, don't forget to visit Cáceres, it's a bit far from Madrid (187 miles), I'm sure you'll fall in love with this city...

So far ive experimented with a bunch of games pre 1992 in PocketDOS running ver 6.22. Overall this imho is the way to go if ya want to play games. Just remember at the command prompt type in SETSCRN DSA ON and press enter before you run the games. I am still waiting on the unlock key for OpenDOS tho. Hoping to hear back from him soon as the demo pause thingy is driving me mad. I like having the ability to just load a CF card with games (disk images) and emulate the CF as a floppy drive and quickly load games. Def look into this as the games for CE are limited and its been so long that getting in touch with some of the people who made these programs is impossible. So if you find a game you like and want the full version, good luck.

Just my 2 cents

Honestly, the easiest would be looking up "HP 200LX" for DOS games and seeing what's there. I'm sure a lot would work well
