HI,

I wold like to try out some 32mb games on my PocketGBA (Kingdom hearts :-) but i was not able to free more than 30mb of ram on my x50v (WM5). Does anyone was able to do that ?

Thanks,
Zanonale

You can try turning off all today plugins and switching your today screen to the simplest you can find (Guava bubbles?). Do a soft reset and see where that leaves you. Try uninstalling other Gui-Enhancement tools like Wizbar and whatever else you may have installed.

Barring that, a real GBA isn't too expensive and has the benefit of more comfortable controls :)

A bit confused about this GBA emulator. Do I need 32mb to play ALL games? How do i know which games require 32mb memory and which don't?

Not possible, as I've pointed out several times, for example in my review of Quake 3..

Nope. You'll only need 32M+ of RAM if you want to play 32M cartridges, not with smaller ones. (Please DO read my posts - I've also elaborated on this question too in my PocketGBA reviews.)

Turning off networking can also free up some RAM.

LOL, I had 38 MB avaliable at all times, but I also don't use any fancy today screen plugin's. Just tMan and Batti

I am studying MS VB05 right now, so if you can give me any tips or need some help on something I would be glad to help(or try).

I managed to free about 3-5mb by deleting all the junk in the temporary internet folders. It fills up really fast if you surf; kinda irritating.

Relocate the cache. See http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showthread.php?p=816277 for more info.

Just remember, it doesn't help to free up much RAM beyond 32 megs. Windows has a limitation of allocating a maximum of 32 megs to a single process. Some games have cheated by opening up files and using them as a cache to get more, but it's a shifty tactic.

Cleaning temp folders only works on WM2003.

Please do the following before you want to play a game:

(1) Odyssey client replacement trick (do a search)

(2) Turn off all today plugins, bluetooth, wi-fi, soft-reset device.

(3) Purchase s-k-tools product for the pocket PC (trial available) run the program "FreeUP RAM". Even after a soft-reset, this will give you a couple KB
