I'm new to the forum and have been searching and reading some useful threads, let me explain my problem to see if anyone can help me.

I have an x51 (with rom A04 recently installed) and I'm using AS 4.0 (I installed 4.1 but had the same problem, so went back to 4.0). Dell Inspiron 6000, windows xp home, fully updated.

The problem is this: I put the axim in the cradle (turned on or off, works the same), the network connection is made and then the AS launches, within seconds (sometimes up to a minute) it disconnects. Sometimes it goes all the way to "synchronized", sometimes the connection isn't alive long enough for this to happen. Even though the activesync says I'm not connected, the connection is still active on "Network Connections"

Here's what I've tried:

- Installing 4.1, and going back to 4.0 (with rebooting and erasing the rapi32.dll and ceut*something*.dll, program files dir, common files dir).
-Installing and uninstalling the network device (from device manager)
-enabling only the 3 options in the connection properties (microsoft networks, TCP/IP, and file and printer sharing)
-disbling every sync item to see if anyone is causing the problem
-Soft resets
-Hard resets
-Disabled firewall (windows, I'm not using norton or mcaffe or other)

I have 2 cradles so I tried both cradles with my laptop and a desktop (every combination) to discard cradle or axim physical failure.

Does anyone know what could be my problem? I've tried finding an answer in other posts but have not come across anything, I already talked to a dell guy but they didn't help either. Help would be greatly appreciated.
