|
|
Why is it when I pan with Pocket Streets on a large map (2MB) the wait icon clock (hourglass on a PC) comes up and stays up for ever.
Even if I kill Pocket PC and restart, it now goes straight to the wait icon when I open that map again.
This happens even if I delete all the Pocket Streets Registry entries.
Ipaq 5550. |

It's probably you are hitting a physical limit within the software. I haven't used Pocket Streets for several years, but I know I used to experience similar problems, and I had to keep the map sizes down to about a meg in size for it to be of any use. |

The maps I have are downloads from Microsoft rather than self created from AutoRoute. One would have expected them to work. |

In that case it may be down to the amount of RAM that you have available, if you have a lot of programs installed into main memory, or a lot of files synced to my documents, then this will eat up the available memory, and may be causing the problem. |
