For example, it still seems to sync, so ActiveSync must still be there, but I can't find an icon and I don't have ActiveSync listed in my Programs. Same for Pocket Word, Calculator, and others. How do I access them and get back their icons, links, and names? Must I reload everything from the Pocket PC Companion CD?

Thanks for the recommendations. Forgot to mention several things that might help with a diagnosis (and cure?). Shortly after installing version 2.2 of Lexigoo, a window began popping up on my screen. It was titled, "Just In Time Debugging." It had the following information on it:
Application filesys.exe has performed an illegal operation.
Program: filesys.exe
Exception: 0xc0000005
Address: 0001ba64
Do you want to debug? (Clicking No will shut down the application) [Yes and No buttons were at the bottom of the window.]
Clicking either of the buttons had no effect whatsoever. I finally hit the soft reset button and would begin again. However, it was just a short time before the message would again pop up.
Finally, after doing about a dozen soft resets, the Axim froze when I hit the soft reset button, displaying the Dell logo as the soft reset usually does, but totally locking up. The power button would not cut it off, nothing happened when I touch the screen, and absolutely nothing eliminated the frozen Dell logo display except removing the battery. That's when I finally did the hard reset.
Now, I took your advice and tried copying the calculator shortcut to the Windows\Programs file, but doesn't seem to do anything--no icon shows up under Programs. Should I do another full backup and another hard reset?
