MS Duo 128Mb to 14Mb - Wheres the memory gone?

8 replies · 2,590 views · Started 24 June 2003

Just want to know if this sounds right.

The following is a list of applications I have installed on my MS Duo 128Mb. Currently I only have 14Mbs of memory left. Could this be correct? Adding up the amount of memory each application requires comes to only 8.150Mbs (I have obtained these values from the uninstall screen), I also have installed 4 MP3's that only take up about 20Mbs. How can 28.150Mbs leave my MS Duo 128Mb with only 14Mbs left? This truely amazes me! Has anyone else come across this problem?

List of applications currently installed -

AppFroge Booster
EDoom and WAD files
Fileman
HealthCalc
MIB
More Viewers
MyDiet
Opera
OwnerDrawing
Personal Trainer
Psiloc Infrared Remote
PsiNT eLib
Quicktimer
Remote P800
SMan
Solun
Stunt Run
Tracker
Unreal Player
WorldMate

The Doom WAD files were not included, but they would only take up another 20Mb at the most.... that would still be only 50Mb of 128Mb

:-? Try reformatting your duostick with your P800 then reinstall everything back... before reinstalling, check the space for your duostick first after the format...

The thread here mentions cluster sizes on the formatted stick, plus the amounts used up in the filesystem.

May help.

Thanks for that Nosferatu and JulesG... I read the other thread but formatting seems so drastic... ahh well might do it anyway...

Will report how things go :cry:

You think that's odd, I can't even use my remaining 20MB as the Duo thinks it's now a ROM card!!! 😮
