Force High Resolution v1.65

Many applications display poorly on Pocket PC VGA as they don't support VGA mode, but use "double pixelisation". There's a work-around for this problem without having to go to "Full VGA" (as SE_VGA and OzVGA do). But this requires adding a little file next to each specific executable.
ForceHiRes has the same effect, without having to add the famous file time and again (10k each time), all done from a System Control Panel (with a simple .cpl file placed in \Windows). You only need to add to the list the executable that you want to force to hi-res mode: simple, quick & effective.

Im trying this as a possible fix for skyfire but after i install the cab i cant find it in my programs or settings. can i have a second set of eyes please?

I installed to main memory, then went to start menu/settings/system and there it is, ForceHiRes. I was able to get 4 exe's added, coreplayer, WVD, Memmaid and smartmovie player.

Re: force high resolution

yeah, i notice a difference. i dont think its a placebo effect. i hope :) I ended up finding a .85xxx skyfire version, and the forceHiRes app said it was already hiRes. i dont have anything older. What have you tried?
dschoenike
oh yeah, thanks for posting this app :)
