this is probably where you get your problems. when i copy a resource, i
just dont do it this way :)

dbRef = DmOpenDatabase(card, dbID, dmModeReadWrite);
// remove old
resIndex = DmFindResource(dbRef, resType, resID, NULL);
if (resIndex != -1)
DmRemoveResource(dbRef, resIndex);
// write new
newHandle = DmNewResource(dbRef, resType, resID,
MemHandleSize(memHandle));
DmWrite(MemHandleLock(newHandle), 0, srcData, MemHandleSize(memHandle));
MemHandleUnlock(newHandle);
DmReleaseResource(newHandle);
DmCloseDatabase(dbRef);
