I have a jornada 525 running 9.2 mgbs of free program memory though when i run quake it loads fine then when it all loads up it freezes and i cant do anything no error messages or anything like that. Any suggestions?

i think maybe it isnt frozen at all.

you have to use the scroll wheel on the side of your device to move up and down and push it in to select.

nope, it loads up all the text stuff that comes up and gets up to the loading demo1 or somethin like that then nothin just stops ive tried moving the scroller oin the left of the device but nothin happens.

do i need 2 leave it to load or has it frozen cause the close button on the top right doesnt respond.

Um...correct me if i'm wrong but doesn't the 525 have only 16megs ram? The guys says that he has 9.2 megs program memory free but the PQ installation should take up around 9 megs (9.2megs + 9megs = 18.2, not even including remaining storage mem). So, unless he's using a CF card, it may be that PQ isn't installed correctly. If a storage card is being used, where is the pak file placed?

BTW Even if it is installed correctly, it takes AGES to load a compressed pak, so leave it running for a bit.

im not wrong i am using a cf card 64mgb and no files are compressed on it. Oh and by the way whats the quality like when run on the 525?

It could just be taking a really long time, it is only a CF Type I card.
But I don't have any less than 20MB of program memory free when I want to play PocketQuake, I'm not sure if 9 MB is totally enough. If you could perhaps disable sound effects through the autoexec.cfg then that would free up lots of memory so it doesn't have to load as much.

all the same, quake will be unplayably slow on a J525, just go into a big room, and also how do you move? theres no d-pad. you'd have to configure each button to a direction.
