That's not a problem, that is how it was designed. The Zune only has 16mb of memory, so every time a game loads up, the memory is eaten alive. It has to restart when exiting. That's what I heard from MS. Based on that logic, when official support comes out with the new firmware, the Zune will restart when exiting games then too. |
.
Thats just stupid... they can't find a way to put the PMP OS into a hibernate mode and store the RAM on the HD then load the game. When you end the game it would dump the data for the game and load the regular data from the HD and it would be just as if you brought it out of stand by.
The Zune has 64MB of RAM, I don't think memory is truly an issue for all games/apps. |
Yeah, just looked it up, it does have 64MB of RAM. 
But yeah, a memory dump would be perfect! That's an excellent idea.

| well, the OS uses memory too, right? so if there is a memory dump, then next thing would be restart? |

since everything is working for me now, i have to admit, i do hate the restart now. |

I doubt it. But I was able to get about two hours of gaming time with a script-heavy game.
