Hello all,

Thanks for any suggestion,

Install, maybe...
Execute, NEVER!!!

EXE programs are binary machine code and PocketPC's and PC's are not binary compatible. You have to run a program compiled for your PocketPC (there are DOS emulators and Game emulators however that can be used to run some PC programs).

Take a look at PocketPCFreeware (http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php).
