Problem with x50V and XP initialization

[Funkhead]

Hi all

I just got my Axim in the mail today and am trying to connect it to my computer. I accidentally connected the USB cable from my cradle to the USB port before installing Microsoft ActiveSync 4.0.0. Now that I have installed ActiveSync, my computer won't recognize the Axim even though it says the USB is available. I went on the troubleshooting site, and they told me to go to the device manager and delete the Code 28 problem and then reboot, etc. Only problem is that I don't know how to delete this Code 28problem in XP (I think the review was written for windows 2000).

Can anyone help me get my axim connected to my computer? I would really love to sync it up and get going. I know its probably a simple problem to fix, but its been frustrating me all day.

Thanks so much.

Funkhead.

Welcome to aximsite.com.

Whoops !!!, never connect the axim first before installing Activesync, this gives problems.

Delete Activesync completely from your PC using the Windown uninstall option in control panel. Run Disk cleanup.

For good measure, I would download and run Regseeker to remove all traces of Activesync. This can be downloaded for free from

Read the instructions for Regseeker, especially where it tells you how to delete entries ( you have to press delete).

Unplug the cradle and then download and install Activesync.

Connect your Cradle and plug in the PDA, you should now be connected.
