Well, this is a great piece of software, and getting better all the time, but I can't get Galaga to work at all on my HP Jornada 545. I downloaded the zip file from a few different places, all were 67k and matched, but when I tried it, I just got a blank screen, and then exit to the games listing. Then I got mailed a "fixed" version originally used on the mamece for casios... that one loads, but I can't enter any coins. I took the galaga.cfg from my home machine, set it for free play (based on a previous post here on the board), copied that to the pocketc, makes no difference: 0 credits, can't get past the attract mode. Using latest release, 06-07-2001, Version 9.1 (not the mega version) Has anyone gotten galaga to actually play on the HP series? Is it my rom, or something else?

Thanks much for any suggestions,
Michael

Galaga runs extremely slow even on the iPaq. The coin issue may relate to the slow processor speed.(Can't read the coin entry quick enough?)
