Emulator Help PLZ
Ok, So i recently downloaded 2 of the GBA Emulators off the free game list (the ones with sound and save and without, not morphgear). I tried both of them and an error that says, "Cannot find 'PocketGBA'(or one of its components)."

I am running a Dell Axim X5 with WM02.

Also, Could it be because the file is located on my SD Card?

THanks For the help everyone,
-Cory Bowers-

It should work on PPC2k2 devices - I've thoroughly tested PocketGBA on my PPC2k2 iPAQ 3660 (see my article on GBA emulators at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/ind...3&p=450&more=1 if interested) and it worked fglawlessly, even running from a memory card.

Are you sure you've transferred (as far as the no-sound version is concerned) PocketGBA_NoSound.exe on your PDA? Then, some other app must have messed up your system - the emu will most prolly run on a freshly hard reset PPC.

(BTW, consider upgrading to WM2003 for much better compatibility with current software.)

I could be wrong ..since I am not specifically about to test the program you are running

I think this is a case of file extension ....

we all know that an EXE is to be run from the desktop PC ...

and a CAB file is to be run from the PocketPC itself ...etc

but !!! ... once in a blue moon ... an EXE is meant to be run from the device ... case example is the SNES PPC emulator ( PocketSNES ) ... it is an EXE file ... yet ... it is to be run from within the device ... not the desktop !!!

again ... I could be wrong assuming this scenario for your case

Youdon't need to - as has been pointed out, just copy it to your PPC and execute it there.

Did you try running it on your desktop computer? It may need to install from there.
