Ok...I upgraded my axim x5 to wm2003 and everything worked fine, but now I have a problem and I can't resotre my old rom image The reason for this being the hard drive on the computer that had the rom image died before i had a chance to back it up somewhere else. Does someone have a backuprom image they can hook me up with so I can get my Axim fixed up right again?

You probably would need to reinstall all of your programs anyway since Windows Mobile 2003 runs on the .NET platform. As for your PIM (contacts, calendar, etc.) information, only you would have that in the backup.

Is the hard drive from your computer completely dead? If it's only the operating system that is the problem, I would try removing the hard drive and placing it into a working computer as a slave. You should then be able to browse the "dead" hard drive from the new computer and retrieve your files from there. Sometimes a drive that can't make it past bootup can still be accessed from another drive.

Hope that helps.

I lost the hard drive completely, I tried to put it in as a slave and what not but it won't even spin up. I'm not too worried about having to reinstall everything to the axim, I am really more concerned with being able to get the ppc2002 rom image again. Would be nice if dell shipped it on the cd...

The reason I say im not worried with the axim too much is because i wanted to revert it back to ppc2002 anyway. With wm2003 i was having too many problems.

Please advise on how to revert from an updgraded WM2003 back to PPC2002. I upgraded to WM2003 and have given up getting my Truemobile to work (which it did fine in PPC2002). I have an old PPC2002 ris file saved but have no idea how to restore it.

The CD that contains the PPC2003 upgrade has a utility to reinstall the old .ris file, armed with that - it is supposed to be possible.

My problem is that I have lost the .ris file. Anyone out there kind enough to hook me up? I have the upgrade cd so all I need is the .ris file.

Thanks,

Dave
