How Do I Increase Driver Memory?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

Driver memory is a special area of memory. In order to increase this area
you will need to uninstall some today screen programs most likely. I have
found that the more today screen programs you have installed the more likely
you are to experience this.

Which part of that is it that you don't undersand?
It seems clear to me, and seems as if it is worth trying.

I just checked and it seems that turning the device off with the power
button, or letting it turn off happens before the error. If the device
is kept running after a soft boot, the bluetooth continues to work.

I did. As long as I don't power the device off, the Bluetooth
continues to work. I am beginning to think there is a problem with the
Bluetooth driver in how it is handling the unloading/reloading when the
power state is changed.
