Error: Couldn't fall back to software refresh!


Error: Couldn't fall back to software refresh!

Postby Kruegs » Mar 16, 2002 @ 3:55am

I get this error:
Error: Couldn't fall back to software refresh!
when I start the program and click the ok button after the startup screen that says the version, web address, Dan East, etc. Right now I have 9.14 MB memory free for Storage and 15.52 free for Programs. I have and iPAQ 3765. Any Help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kruegs

Is that the only error message you see, or do any precede it?

That is the only message I see. I also noticed that if there are other windows open it shows the error message behind them.

I would recommend that you try and free up at least 20MB of program memory, and perform a soft reset just before starting Pocket Quake II.

In this order:

Soft reset
Adjust Memory >20
Start PQII

I launch the prgm
I get the splash screen, and after that, 'Couldn't fall back to software refresh'.

And it crashes the application where I launch PocketQuake (pocket pc file explorer or 'pocketexplorer' for example)

Should have explained more.... I have over 25MB free for program memory. I tried with the original pak0 file on a 64MB storage card. I then did what the ruskie in the other post suggested and culled the pak0 file down to 17MB and loaded into RAM and tried again with the same result. The error message is immediate after splash screen.
