5.2 MANAGING MEMORY
The operating system and preloaded programs are stored in Flash ROM. Although this memory is
not available for saving programs and files, it does not use up valuable RAM.
Your Pocket PC comes with 64MB of RAM storage space. More storage space can be added by
inserting an optional CompactFlash card or Secure Digital card in one of the expansion slots.
Storage space is allocated for two purposes: to store applications and files, and to run programs.
If you receive a low memory warning you should try the following:
Move files and programs to a CompactFlash or Secure Digital card.
Move seldom-used files to your PC.
Remove unnecessary programs and delete files.
Close some applications that are running.
Use the Memory control panel to clear memory.
Memory is managed automatically by the operating system. However, you can temporarily adjust
the allocation of storage and program memory. Tap on “Settings” on the start menu, select the
System tab, and then tap on the Memory icon to open the Memory Manager. Use the slider control
to adjust the setting.
Close programs that are running by selecting the Running Programs tab in Memory Manager. Tap
“Remove programs” at the bottom of the screen to remove programs stored in RAM. Tap “Find” to
search for large files that can be removed from memory.
