Bust'em lockups in full version?

I have the Bust'em demo and find that it locks up my regular old Axim advanced quite often. I'm tempted to pick up the full version (hell, Monkeystone already has $40 from me) but don't want to buy something that will piss me off and wear out my reset button.

Has anyone had the full version and had similar (or no) problems?

It locks up every once in awhile, mainly when a whole lot of power ups are dropping at one time.

Cool Appreciated

Thanks for the reply. It's unfortunate to have to take a pass on such a fun game, but as a Morrowind PC player I've had enough lockups to last me the rest of my life and won't be dealing with any more on my PDA.

Wenjon: he was asking if anyone that owns the full version has lockup problems.

BruceL: My brother loaded it on my Axim from my old Ipaq CD :) He can play it without problems on his Ipaq. I can play it on my Axim (400mhz) without problems. Do you have the 300mhz Axim or 400mhz Axim? It don't work well on the 300mhz version, my sister got an Axim 300mhz and loaded bustem from her Ipaq CD and it does not work well @ all without tweaking the Axim.

Here is the workaround for both (I had to do it cause it locked up once or twice)

First set the Axim to its max speed Start > Settings > System Tab > Power > Processor > Select Normal (300mhz and 400mhz respectivly)

Next Max out your available program memory.

Start > Settings > System Tab > Memory > Set the slider as far left as it goes, then move it toward the right to give you ~1-3mb (score storage) of free storage space. This is your main mem you are tweaking 64mb for the 400mhz axim 32mb for the 300mhz Axim.

Go start the game! Remember to restore these settings back to default after you play the game.

Hope this helps

weird :\

Even with those adjustments, the demo still locked up my axim. Too bad! But I appreciate the help... fortunately I've got a late beta of Monkeystone's Congo Cube to fill my puzzle game fix :)
