HOOVER!!! Wait that's the wrong vacuum cleaner. I mean Eureka. We have lift off. Hey I'm punchy. Lack of sleep dontcha know. Here's what I did.
1. Found a cab file for the cf.net file from my good buddy at
FreeCab's for PocketPC's. (shameless plug)
2. Did NOT hard reset. Wanted to save that as a last resort.
3 un installed both cfnet 2 and mastersoft sudoku v2.
4 As you know sudoku leaves behind a file called MSudokuV2.mv2 in your my documents folder even after you un install it. Well since I was putting my favorite stuff in my main memory at first and then later on my larger SD Card and finally all my games went on my new even bigger CF card I had three copies of the little bugger. So I deleted all of them.
5. Since someone posted the same problem with mastersoft money because of a tweak to add AM & PM to the time, I took that off too for good measure.
6. Installed first cfnet 1 sp3 and then ms sudoku.
7 started up sudoku sucessfully
8. Almost woke up the sleeping but now much louder snoreing husband.
There you go. one small step for geekdom, one giant leap for insomnia.
Play hard and bounce high. thanks a lot.
