Hi,

I need some help with the MAME program. I installed it on my pocket PC and then later found an emulator that I like a little more, sor I tried to uninstall MAME through the pocket PC Remove programs and that did not work I got an error about it running and not being able to be deleted. I went into the settings page and made sure that nothing else was running and then tried to manually delete it. That did not work either. Same error message. Hooked up the active sync and it did the same thing. Any ideas?? I know that there is nothing running on there unless it is a .dll that I can't get to. That is all I can think of, and if that is the case does anyone know if there is a safe mode of sorts that I can get into to disable to file that is causing MAME to run so I can't delete it.

Poke the Stylo into the little Reset hole on your unit and it will be unlocked.

Perform a soft reset. the file in use will be reset.
