Summary: Crash maybe related to size of .ini file

Initial Comment:
So, here is the situation. I installed PocketSCUMM 0.9.0 according to SirDave's manual. I installed a bunch of games: Beneath a Steel Sky, Day of the Tentacle, Loom, MI1, MI2, and Sam and Max. The only ones that worked were bass and mi2, and they worked wonderfully. The rest of the kept getting the same error which was

"ScummVM error. Unrecoverable exception occurred - see crash dump ...".
This was getting quite frustrating.

So, then I installed 0.9.1 and I don't get that error anymore. I get a different one and this time it does it for all the games. The error is:

"Assertion failed w <= MAX_MOUSE_W (..\..\..\backends\wince\wince-sdl.cpp,1670)"

-----------------------------------------------------

Update on my situation:

I deleted the .ini file. I then ran ScummVM. I chose a game and it worked. I quit then went back into the program and tried to run the game again. The error showed up. It showed whatever game I tried the second time.

I deleted the .ini file again. Ran a different game and it worked. Same situation.

So I do think it has something to do with the size of the .ini file. What to do about it? That I don't know.

On a side note: Some of the games I tried...like MI1, when I quit the game, it sort of froze up and didn't quit to the desktop.
