Raynne413-

Thanks for listing these movable .dlls!

Raynne413 · 12-03-04, 08:24 PM

No problem. I believe wooch has some others to list, from what he said in a previous thread. I got to save a pretty good amount of memory that way. Too bad the Visual Basic files can't be moved.

We'll see what we can do about this.
Any particular app. that we can try and test with ?

Here is one of my favorite visual basic apps. It is an astronomy program. And here is a link to the 2003 visual basic runtimes. It is a .cab file.

I don't use the DinarSoft app, don't even know the name of what you're talking about. But I have begun moving DLL files to the file store in my X5, using the Mad Programmer's SystemPath applet along with his gsGetFile.dll. In cases where CabInstl (or more recently my modified registry to have CAB files open a proper installation location dialogue) won't put the files into a card or file store I just move them manually, after a backup of course, and test.

Of the eVB DLLs the only one which seems to work is pvbform2.dll, which has been happy there for a week or so and allows full use of several eVB apps.

I also keep these there:

msmsgs8.dll
NETWLAN.DLL
PrintDC.dll
RFileShell03.dll
NICTT.EXE

The NETWLAN relates to my Symbol drivers, the NICTT.EXE as well, the PrintDC is from FieldSoftware's stuff, and Resco and MSNMessenger things are obvious. Some others I've tested have either failed to allow program functions or they've 'pretended' to be moved.... then when I check back they're still in Windows, just a copy got made in the new location.

Here's a little tutorial I threw together:

This will free up more main memory, won't it?

Gerard Samija · 12-04-04, 01:12 AM

In my case it's freed up 1.57MB of RAM, so far. I'm pretty careful about installing things like Reader and Messenger updates to an SD card, and Sprite lives in the file store except for a couple of files. The Pocket IE Macromedia Flash6 plugin is also installed to the file store, and a host of other junk. No use clogging RAM with any more than strictly necessary, like Today plugins, PIM databases, and other stuff which just won't function anywhere else. Still, I have only 42MB free after soft resets. Got to figure some ways to dump out even more, as this X5 is very memory-leaky under WM2003 compared to before the upgrade.

I moved .dll files with no problems for:

MS Reader
MS Reader Activation
Pocket Everquest: War on Faydwer
ESoft's Arcade Challenge
Resco Explorer
Sprite Backup
Icom's 5 Dice Corsair
Handmark's 4.0 Student

We'll add the two biggest ones (lots of memory savings if you move any of them)

PocketInformant
AgendFusion

Defiantly (if you have something to be moved).

I actually tried moving the evb files one at a time, and my programs would not work until I moved ALL of them back to main memory.

Thanks for starting the threadRaynne!

So far, Pocket Controller Pro will not work when its DLL files are moved to SD Card. Looks like its pretty picky

I moved its dll files back & it wrks fine.

So far, this is the only app that I've had an issue with.

I saved about 2.7 MB by moving dlls to SD. Thanks DinarSoft

Will list any others that bark after being moved

Edit: Add ZenoKeyboard to the list. I'm not able to use it. I moved the dll file back to MM, and it still won't stick as my input choice. Now, I did delete the registry files via SKTools, but I did back them up. My hunch is that once I restore the deleted registry entry, it should work again.
