i hope it is ok to post for help with the axim, i noticed others have so i figured i would, since i am getting desperate.

ok obviously i am a newb at this or i probably would not have this problem so please bear with me.

i downloaded the Dell_Axim_X50_X50v_wm2005_A01 99mb file and then went threw the install process. the first problem was that since i am using vista it does not seem to work with windows mobile center v6... when it tries to install i get bast the "update rom" and the warning to backup, then it verifies the device and cautions about clearing all the data, then when i click continue it freezes and my axim says "wait for usb to be ready...", then a few seconds later the installer says "ROMUpdateUTILITY MFC application has stopped working" and i have to close the program. I then have to hard reset my axim.

i then tried to flash the rom by putting the files on the sd card like it says in this forum but when i do that i get to the "SD Image A01 update" and then it says "no suitable image found" and then "image update failed, please try again"
I have tried it with both the following images that were in the zip cause i was not sure which one was the correct one.... niether one works.

AximX50_A_WM5_A01EN
AximX50_B_WM5_A01EN

is this a vista compatability issue? a mobile center v6.1 issue? or is it my stupidy?

any advice.

all i want to do is update from wm2003se to wm 5
