Problem with PocketGB; Help please!
So I registered PocketGB to play Game Boy Advance games. It all works, except for one minor detail...

It doesn't recognise any of the GBA games I have put on it!

They are all .gba files, which PocketGB is ment to read.

If it means anything, this is all happening on my SD card.



Thanks in advance! (No pun intended).

Do you have morphgear, or any other emulators installed?

From poking around, I couldn't find anywhere reliable where it said it worked for GBA games. I found plenty of sites that said it worked for GB games, NES, Sega and a couple others... But nothing about Game Boy Advance.

What the hell?!?! I haven't heard about pocketgb in so long, I fell out my chair as soon as you mentioned it! If no one know's by now with me replying to this thread... Pocketgb is actually a very, very, very old version of Morphgear! Since I'm the Project Administrator of Morphgear, I should know this. From time to time, we get a few people who are still using this old version of Morphgear. They either haven't appeared in the pocket pc communities for a long time(usually if they have a really old device) or haven't decide to swap over to the new and improved version of the program just yet. You can grab the newest version of Morphgear at: http://www.spicypixel.com/snipsnap/space/start
Check out our forums as well, the rest of the Forum Moderators will be happy to answer any question. I personally roll out the red carpet for X50v users only but I will give my time via Instant Messenging to anyone who recquires help. I hope this cleared up a few issues !
