I'm new to PDA's and recently bought this Ipaq h3850 on Ebay. I upgraded to ROM 2.00 so as to be able to read an SD card. That worked then my Symbol24 CF wireless card arrived in the mail. After many attempts to get the h3850 to recognize the NIC, using Perfect Prism 1.0, Symbol drivers 3.9.2.-67 and Spectrum24v3.9.2-67 from Microsoft, I gave up and downgraded to ROM 1.15.04. This has Windows CE 3.0. The downgrade worked but the wireless card installation still fails.

Is it even possible to get this Symbol24 card to be recognized? I'm using a Nexipak Expansion Sleeve.

Files seem to be installed in directories that aren't searched. I'm using Activesync 3.8.0 on WinXP. I can transfer CAB files just fine and sync runs smoothly.

I'm a bit hesitant about reflashing the Ipaq ROM repeatedly since bricking a Nokia N770 with a screen driver failure.

Advice would be appreciated.
