Default Games

I have just got my HP iPAQ Pocket PC, and it came only with one game
(solitarie). I've transfering other games but when trying to run them I get
the message "it's not a valid Pocket PC aplication".
So, the question is, how do i put more "valid" games into my Pocket PC?

Thanks,
Juan

My best guess is you tried to copy over games from your desktop
computer and tried to run these, or you tried to run the installers
for these games on your PPC. Common practise for PPC's is to cradle
them and install the software from your desktop pc with ActiveSync.
Since you have an iPAQ, you should look for games that are ARM/Xscale
compatible, these should work on your PPC when you install them
from the desktop to your iPAQ.
Hope it helps.

You have to find Pocket PC games. You copied probably a PC Windows game.
Those operating systems are not compatible.

Go to:
www.pocketgamer.org
www.games-art.com
www.pdarcade.com

There you will find links to games. But choose only the Pocket PC games.

You can find some also at PocketGear.com or Handango.com
