I don't know how the problem incarnated itself but your suggestion worked. My best guess is that I frequently try to reproduce problems other people on this site have so I can step by step walkthrough fixes, I'm sure it's my fault.
You surely are top notch support for AximUsers but I don't have the ability to make you a moderator. At 100 posts you will get Senior Member status.
Thanks again, and awesome job (again),

Honestly, I did not look for the solution. I trusted you when you said there is no conclusion on the problem ... on the Internet. The difficult part was "how to duplicating the error message". That was my main focus; if I can cause it to happen, I should know what causes it (cause & effect).
My first instinct was ActiveSync on the X51V. Then I thought about the Axim's adapter Remote-NDIS Host, and the Static IPs 169.254.2.1 & 169.254.2.2 used by ActiveSync.
By then, it was quite clear that "something" must be creating a problem in the X51V "communication interface" ... the adapter (RndisFn). With that in mind, I selected the
Remote-NDIS Host adapter and configured it to accept "Server-Assigned IP address".
After docking the X51V for about 1 minute, the error message popped up. Bingo! I was almost sure what to look for to fix it.
Next, I went to check the registry settings for the adapter. And there it was ... DHCP enabled:
"EnableDHCP=1". So I set it to "0" to disable it.
After the change, I docked the X51V for 15 minutes without any error messages.
Then I duplicated the error condition again to make sure it is repeatable. It did. So, after fixing the registry (again), I let the X51V docked for about 30 minutes. When the errorr message did not show up, I knew the problem was fixed.
The hardest part was posting my "solution". I rushed (was afraid someone else could beat me to it), and edited my posts a few times. Took me more than an hour to write.
I was just kidding about the Moderator title ... a bit of fun in between work.
Note:
I also used vxUtil (Info, Ping, etc) for troubleshooting (the network).
Cheers.
