Working fine on my x51v

 

If you prefer more readability over fancy shaded buttons, here's a VGA version you might like better.

"I'm a perfectionist, but not very good at it yet."

I'm still using my 48GX with 128KB and 1MB cards as well as quite a few cards for hacking, surveying, hydraulics, and yes, the calculus card. I was one of the beta testers for the calculus card- you can find my name in the credits

Thanks for the skins- they are much better than the ones I was using and I prefer the 48G ROM rather than the 49G.

Sweet! Thanks for the QVGA skin... until I get a VGA PPC, that is, then I will thank you for the VGA skin. I'm tired of looking at my old 48gx skin. I still have my old HP, but might ebay it for Christmas spending money.

Hey, by the way, I also have a HP 48G with a busted screen. I wonder if there's a market for that?

How to Ask Questions the Smart Way and Before you Ask

        

Your error message is probably due to the "keyboard.kmi" file missing and possibly others (i.e., beep.48) - as the "e48mb106.zip" file is missing a few files (i.e., ROM, Keyboard & Beep to be more precise)

Download "emu-ppc48-49.zip" from this site http://www.hpcalc.org/details.php?id=5292 and copy all the files containing "48" in the same folder that you installed Emu48.exe (Program Files\Emu48) and when you run it, you will have an option to use "EngrPaul Real VGA 48GX" or the "PPCHorizontal48" which is not displayed as nicely as EngrPaul's version.

Many thks EngrPaul for sharing your great work with us

BTW, if you still haven't found the "ROM.48G" - you can download it from this site http://hpcfactor.com/forums/forums/t...id=613&posts=3 Click on "Emu48CE on ARM (untested)" and it will be one of the zipped files. Then simply copy it to your Emu48 folder and you should be all set. Hope this helps. cheers.

I didn't have any problems with missing files in the 1.06 Emu48 install.

You're quite welcome LHR.

Now, If we could only get IR to work between a real calculator and the PPC emulator...

"I'm a perfectionist, but not very good at it yet."

I'm having problems getting this to work. I have copied the contents of emu-ppc48-49.zip and EMU48CE_arm2k.zip to my X51v. I ran the cab file which created \EMU48CE. I then moved the files containing "48" to that directory inlcuding the rom.48g file. When I run EMU48CE it brings up a green screen and then crashes about 1-2 second later.


Where am I going wrong?

(1) Unzip and run the following file on your desktop, copy the CAB file to your PPC and double-click it to install the emulator to your PPC.:
http://privat.swol.de/ChristophGiess...8/e48mb106.zip. This emulator program allows your PPC to run a calculator ROM. If you want it on a memory card use the freeware programs CABINSTL from SK Tools.

(2) Copy a KML/BMP pair to the PPC installed directory. I have provided several sets. This provides the emulator with an input screen and keyboard mapping.

(3) Download (and convert if necessary) the ROM.48G file you need. The file and instructions can be found by a google search of "ROM.48G". Place this file in your PPC install directory. This is the actual calculator ROM.

(4) After accomplishing these three things, run Emu48 on your PPC.

NOTE: There is two different series of emulators. If I'm getting this right, there's Emu48CE which has been around for a while and is now version 1.23f (?) and Emu48 which is a new engine based on the Windows emulator, and is at version 1.06. The Emu48 is the better of the two in my opinion. If you read the top paragraph of Christoph Giesselink's page you will understand better.

"I'm a perfectionist, but not very good at it yet."

Success!!


Thanks!

Emu48 for the pocket PC has been upgraded to 1.07 (see original post)

I could not find a change log...

I've been using the skins I made, and I'm pleased to say both QVGA and VGA versions work flawlessly.

"I'm a perfectionist, but not very good at it yet."

Do you know if this is compatible with X51v running WM5 rom A06?

 

Works fine on A04 on my x51v so I would think it should work on A06

 

Need some
