Hold the power button, and push the reset button (small hole on the back, push it with your stylus). Hold both for 2 seconds I think.

2. I have this error that keeps coming up when I hook it up to my laptop. "Unable to obtain a server-assigned IP address. Try again later or enter an IP Address in Network Settings." I'm not sure what I should do with this.
Don't know either, sorry.

3. Memory Questions. I have 256 ROM and 64 RAM. When I click on the memory icon in settings it says I have 195 MB of Storage Memory and 49 MB of Program Memory. Does storage = ROM and Program = RAM. If so shouldn't this be 256 and 64 MB?
Actually the OS itself is inside the rom already, I think. And the OS uses part of the RAM for caching.

4. Finally, is there anything I should do or get that most people recommend for a new Axim?
Read the forum, especially the large 'tips' topics.
