I can only describe this as odd.
When I dock my Ax to charge and sync, the AC plug is inserted (charging) and the USB is connected to the computer - the blue "Dell" sign is barely visible and the Ax says it's charging, but the display immediatly drops to 0% charged (main battery). I know it's about at 50% since when I take it off of the cradle it quickly recovers to about 50%. Also when I take out the main battery and try to charge it in the back slot, the orange light doesn't light up and the batter doesn't charge. Finally, When I plug the charger directly into the AX the batter level goes to 0% as well.

The only odd thing that I did recently (Friday)was upgrade the OS to 2003. (And I did not install the keyboard driver as of yet.)

Any other idea to check the charger?
