but the program *should" be installed in main memory, to prevent any confusion and system lockups/weirdness when you don't have the card inserted.
I ran the install from the desk top. I didn't know that a CAB file was created. This was the first thing that I had ever installed. Do all apps have CAB files generated for them?

I don't remember seeing "do you want this installed in the default location". I will be installing Mobipocket reader soon so I will look for it. However I want this installed in main memory anyway.

I have installed all games to the CF card those don't seem to generate a CAB file.

So... I can copy the CAB file to my memory card and then install from there... who knew?!? :lol:

I have been copying all my books to my SD and CF cards via USB card reader. But when I couldn't get it to work I though maybe I had to use ActiveSync.

Thanks for all the help.
