PPC Games

I downloaded Rayman demo onto my PPC but it would not ru; something about "no app associated w/program". Than I downloaded it to my computer thinking that I maight sync it onto my PPC. Did not work. What am I doing wrong. I have the book PPC fo Dummies but it really doesn't give that much detailed info regarding downloading games.

First unzip it on the PC. Then place your PPC in its cradle and run the .exe that is in your unzipped folder. The .exe will launch the install program and install it to your PPC.

Generally, the only time you copy files directly to the PPC are if they are MS Office files, ebooks, themes, and other things like that. Programs that only have one file and the .cab extension should also be copied to the PPC and then run the .cab (that stands for cabinet file) through File Explorer and it will auto install. Most anything with a .exe extension (executable) runs from the PC and self installs on the PPC. Most anything with a .zip (compressed zipped file) needs to be unzipped from the PC and then will either auto install or you run the .exe or move the .cab.

That's it. I tracked the game down and am installing it exactly like this.

Nice graphics, almost impossible to use the controls. The game runs in landscape mode but you have to press the D-Pad and buttons at the same time. This is very awkward.
