One other odd thing I found, is that the explorer window has a "Folder Tasks" option where it has "Extract all files". Also Hmmm. Is this some sort of zip file? Mike goes travelling up the tree (probably like he should have at the beginning) and finds ... Yes, it would be something like that. Mystery solved. :sigh: Turns out it was finding it IN a zip file that was a backup of my Nokia Internet Tablet, which DOES indeed have a home/user/.FBReader directory in it. So. That mystery is solved! :-D Now I just need to figure out where the program is storing the config information when on a Windows box. Back to square one!

:-D You got me. I should read over what I write before I post.

Anytime! If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know. :rose: Anna :rose: Having a bad bug day? Tech Blog | Anna's Place | Tears and Laughter "If mushy peas are the food of the devil, the stotty cake is the frisbee of God"

Thanks! That was suggested along with ProcessMon. Both work great.

Actually, I just remembered after looking at things, that I did just install Windows Media Player 10, so maybe it messed my codecs up. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for your help, Mike

That would be a real bummer. :(( Ah well, if that's the way it is, I'll just have to find a work-around. Thanks, Mike

I tried it again, and you're right. It's just that in this case with the EVC3 emulator, it was, for some reason, taking WAY too long before it registered. If I click and hold it for 5-10 seconds, it then registers and SLOWLY starts drawing the dotted circle and then gives me the context menu. Whew! Who knew? Thanks again for your help! Mike

yep, i cant install eVC4 on my XP-Prof.SP2-Machine! I am sure that SP2 is the problem because i have no problems on my non-SP2 Machines. There is no further Information (so far i know) on the SP2-Readme and the Microsoft-Support Site. Greetings, Thomas http://www.thbi.de

If someone or a place tried to force me to pay a tip I would politely tell them to take it out of my arse. I tip on the rare occasion they go out of their way to give me a good service; I don't tip people who are merely doing what they are paid to do. * * And to people who say "but the tips make up an important part of their wage", I say it's their own damned fault, they should have got a higher paying job if they cannot afford to live on the wage they are employed under.

I like this as well. Though, I'm sure that it would be several million $$$. It would be cool though.

That probably would not work in this situation - you need a driver to process the ethernet packets on the USB side (which would be connected to the hard drive). These converters are generally used to allow an ethernet connection into a computer thru a USB port and have a special driver running on the comptuer to manage the connection. Steve

Thanks for the help. Manually downloading and installing seem to be a great place to start. I manually downloaded the setup and ran it. Finally I was told what the problem was!! It couldn't run the cryptographical service (or something like this) so I go and check that. Sure enough, it isn't started. I try to start it and it tells me that it can't start because it had an exception accessing some part of memory. I think it's time to pull all of my data off and rebuild the machine. Thanks again!

Thanks. I'm sure that would be it since I haven't installed anything for the Pocket PC. Thanks for the article reference. It's next on my list when I get some spare time. Thanks again, Mike

Thanks Andy! I'll give that a try. Hopefully it will help. Otherwise, I'm not really looking forward to rebuilding my machine. Thanks again, Mike

Thanks!! :-D

Thanks. I'll have to give them a glance.
