Axim X5 and Pocket Streets

[eneubauer@codonics.com]

All,

I just purchased the X5 4 weeks ago and today purchased Microsoft PocketStreets. However when I try to load Pocket Streets I immediatly get an error message.

'we were not aqble to locate the Windows CE Services Application Manager, Please make sure thay you have Windows CE services installed and then try again'

I have activesync 3.7.1 installed and synced via my belkin USB cable. I have no problems syncing or installing other programs. I have tried reinstalling streets on my PC 2 more times both times right after a sync.

In addition when I loaded the full Microsoft Streets program onto my laptop it installed without problem, except that the pocketPC install checkbox was greyed out.

A call to microsoft said they have not finished writing the Application Services Manager software, and that it will cost $$. The foreign speaking support gentleman left the issue as unresolved and simply replied 'we cannot help you'.

Any ideas from anyone?

Put the MS Streets into your drive (I'm assuming you bought the CD) and go to Start/Run. Brouse your CD for \PStreets\Setup.exe. See if you can install PStreets that way.
