I have a an Axim X5, rom version A04, OS version 3.0.11171 (Build 11178).

Frequently when I turn it on, the password screen flashes repeatedly and I can't do anything except reset it. Most of the time it will work after that, though not all the time. Sometimes I have to reset it again.

Other times, I'll get past the logon screen and then nothing. I can't do anything without resetting.

I updated the firmware to A04 hoping it would help, but it didn't. I'm now thinking this is an OS problem anyway, but I can't figure out how to update the OS. I don't see where I can download an update anywhere.

If anyone has seen this or has a suggestion I would appreciate it. I just downloaded the CF update from Dell as a long shot, although I don't know why it would help. Sometimes I have a CF installed and sometimes not. It doesn't seem to matter as it relates to this problem.

Thanks.
