paQ Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Why is it that when I produce my own BMP files, the AVIC refuses them to load and displays an error, stating it cannot load the bitmap? Are they 32 bit? 24? what? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paladin Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Try getting a free program called IRFANVIEW. http://www.irfanview.com/ It is the best picture viewer for the PC and has a lot of conversion utilities built in. You could try converting your pictures with it to see if they load. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You need MioMap tool, iPaq Image Explorer, IgoConvert or one of the other programs that can compress/decompress iGO's custom bitmap format... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
