I loaded Pac-Man from the Pocket PC Expansion Pack CD
onto my Pocket PC 2002 based iPAQ. First it did not work.
I could not video during game play. I could hear the
sound, but I never saw the familar game display. I only
saw a blue screen. So I tried to remove Pac-Man to
attempt a reinstall just in case that might help. Now I
can not remove the disfunctional Pac-Man application. I
keep getting an error message that the application is
either in use or is read only. If it is not going to work
I would like to get rid of it. If I can make it work that
would be ok also. I need help.

Perform a soft reset before attempting to uninstall the app.

Thanks,

That worked. I was able to uninstall Pac-Man. Now why did
it not work on the original install?
