OK.
I've read everything I could find on sync-ing, and tried tons of stuff. I'm at the point of doing a hard reset, but thought I'd ask.

I put my Axim in the cradle it connects,
PC ActiveSync says connected, then starts looking for changes, then goes to connected (for a split second) and immediately to not connected.

It does this in the cradle on my home PC.
It does this with a sync cable on my work PC.
It does this in the cradle on my work PC.

I can connect via IR to my work PC, but I can only send files back and forth.
I can connect via WiFi to my home PC, it attempt to sync, but has problems with everything except MS Money (nothing else is sync-ed), and says I need to sync via wire or IR to determine the problems.

I uninstalled active sync and reinstalled it (multiple times).
I installed the USB drivers again.
I followed the MS web active sync troubleshooting guide.

Someone suggested removing some of the items it syncs, I tried one, then removing all items. The only difference this made was that it did not look for changes.

I uninstalled that last couple of programs I installed. This didn't help.

I closed everything (from ICBar which actually closes them), and then closed ICBar. This didn't help.
I found two items open on the Today screen and closed those too. This didn't help.

Numerous soft resets and PC reboots did not help either.

Anyone have a suggestion I missed, or some little trick?
If not, I'll try a hard reset, but I'll wait until the weekend.
