Chapter 5 Configuring your HP Jornada 59

Use HP settings to change the display mode to 8-bit color.

If you are playing music or using other functions that do not require the display, turn off the display by pressing and holding the Notification button/LED. (Turn on the display by pressing the Notification button/LED again.)

Managing memory

The memory on your HP Jornada is allocated between storage memory and program memory. Windows for Pocket PC automatically manages the allocation between storage and program memory; however, in some situations, such as when memory is low, it may not be able to automatically adjust the allocation. If you receive a message stating that storage or program memory is unavailable, try the following solutions.

Increasing storage memory

You can try any or all of these solutions to increase storage memory:

Buy an optional CompactFlash memory card, and move files from internal memory to the card. (For more information on CompactFlash cards, see the CompactFlash cards section in chapter 8.)

Delete unnecessary files.

Remove Web pages stored for offline viewing in Internet Explorer folders.

Remove programs you no longer use. See the Adding or removing programs section in this chapter.

Clear program memory. See the following section, Increasing program memory.

Increasing program memory

You can try any or all of these solutions to increase program memory:

Use HP task switcher or the Memory control panel to stop programs you are not currently using. In most cases, programs automatically stop to free needed memory. However, in some situations, such as when a dialog box is waiting for a response, the program may not be able to stop automatically.

Clear storage memory as described in the preceding section. This will free some storage memory so that it can be re-allocated as program memory.

Disconnect the sync cable or remove your HP Jornada from the cradle, remove the CompactFlash card (if installed), and reset your HP Jornada. See the Resetting your HP Jornada section in chapter 9.
