    Keyboard

    Hey sorry if this has already been covered,
    On the iPad when i put it into fullscreen in landscape mode my keyboard isn't showing up. I've tried going in under options and changing settings but not much luck. Am I missing something?

    Thanks.

    Yeah especially on the older devices, I might try some shareware space shooters but they will most likely run with a chuggy frame rate ruining them.

    people having issues with wing commander, is there a way in the emulator to get more ems/xms memory? i remember to get that game to run i had to run memmaker / emm386 in the dos days...the game required a certain amount to run i dont remember them off hand...

    needed both EMS and XMS memory....

    Memory Requirements
    Conventional: 587Kb
    High: 1024Kb EMS

    To those who have installed windows. Is it somehow possible to be in windows, then run a command prompt to launch the games or emulators? Will that somehow make games run faster?

    try capital letters.

    When I use this program and push too hard I can see a green thumbprint pushed into the screen like pushing on a monitor. I suspect this is due to overheating from maxing out the cpu

    As someone else said, there are "illegal" things going on all over the internet. Being on the interwebz doesn't make it legal, surprisingly enough. Just because something is no longer for sale, or the company that created it no longer exists, that doesn't mean that it's not copyright infringement when people copy and download the software, unless there's some weird copyright law out there that says otherwise.

    Anyway, I'm looking forward to playing with this later after work. No idea how Apple passed this...

    if anything they would run slower, since the device emulating dos and running windows which is being run under an emulated environment would also have to run another emulator on top of that...

    'bricked' as in, becomes an unsuable paperweight without a 3 hour restore. yeah, I count that as bricked. Can I use it in those 3 hours? No, so it is bricked!

    Did i mention in my post that I was able to start a restore, Yes. Your comment serves what purpose exactly? Its not even Like i was hating on the app. I intend to go back and using iDOS once the restore is done. Next time I try to offer advice to be careful about an exact set of circumstance that caused the failure of my device, I won't, would that make you happy?

    Check devs website it explains this. It is a tap and hold. Different touches represent right click, left click and drag etc.
