Question Adobe Flash player 7 how to install?

I have a x51v but how do I install this file? It came only as a .cab file. I would like to attempt to load some flash games.

Just use activesync and transfer the file to somewhere on your axim and then execute the file on the axim.

You just copy the downloaded (get it from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer_pocketpc/ ) fp7_ppc_en.cab to your PDA and execute it there.

Download the CAB file with a right-click WITHOUT going into the file with Winzip.

It's winzip that is causing this problem because it automatically extracts the contents of the CAB file.

thanks for the suggestion. I have tried to install cab files and have gotten the same message when I click on them on pda. I have just given up on installing the software. I'll now go back and try again.
