Can't install programs to SD or CF cards

I don't get the choice to install programs to either my SD or CF card since upgrading.

What's the fix?

Install the program, then M$ WM5 will ask where you want to install the program on the Dell. It was very confusing for me at first.

Whenever it tries to install a CAB file, it will prompt you for where you want to install it: Main Memory, SD Card, or CF Card.

HTH,

Well, it doesn't give me the option. It goes straight to installation without any dialogue.

I think this is strike #3 for WM5, I'm going back!

I have the same problem, it's hit and miss with me. Sometimes I get the prompt to install on a mem card and sometimes not. But yes, WM5 does have this feature, when it feels like it :) maybe I just don't understand which programs it chooses. For example, I tried to install the game toy golf on a mem card with no luck.
