First I have spent almost 8 hours searching for an answer, I am aware this have been asked before but this situation is slightly different. I have been using my axim for 6 months on two different pc's (work a Dell with w2k, home a notebook with XP Pro) with no troubles. Yesterday, it would no longer sync with sync cable to laptop. I decided to bring it to work and try my other PC and sync with the cradle, another no go. In device manager, under USB, it does not show up. I have tried every described tip/trick including soft resets, hard resets, uninstalling Activesync (have tried version 3.5, 3.6, was using 3.7) all to no avail.

Any last suggestions? I thought it was a dead Axim, but on a couple of occasions, my work pc would display USB device in device manager, then display a failure when trying to load the driver. My notebook at home never displays anything under device manager but does refresh the device manager when the Axim sync cable is connected. I fear I'm left with a shiny paper weight. Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated.
