I have been syncing for a few months without problems and suddenly I get an error message, "Port Not Available. Cannot start communications...blah..blah..Another program may be using the port...blah..blah..etc.etc."
X3i works fine over bluetooth to a laptop, but stopped working though the desktop. How do I debug this one? I checked microsoft knowledge base, made sure I have enough free memory but cannot check with irda or bluetooth as the PC doesn't have it. I'm using W2k and looked at Device Manager at it says "Windows CE USB Devices (Dell Axim USB Sync) is working properly.
Any help on how to check out the ports would be great.
