2. Copy the Windows Mobile 5 Bootloader and the corresponding CRC File to a FAT32 formatted SD-Card (Valid Filename for example DiMa_B_A01_X50v_WM5_ENG.nb0)
3. Insert the SD-Card into your Axim and start the SD Image Loader by Pressing Wireless + Power + Reset
4. The Image Loader will search for flash images on your SD-Card, as there is still the Windows Mobile 2003 Bootloader on your device it will only look for files beginning with "DiMa" and therefore will only display the bootloader image.
5. Press the action key twice, this starts the update process. DANGER: If this process fails your device will be a 300$ paperweight...
6. After the process is finished (takes only a few seconds) you will be asked to hard reset your system. Ignore this message and press Wireless + Power + Reset again.
7. The Image Loader will search for flash images on your SD-Card, as there is now the Windows Mobile 5 Bootloader on your device it will only look for files beginning with "WM50" and therefore will only display the OS image.

9. After the process is finished you will be asked to hard reset your device. Follow this instruction and wait for the OS to load. That's all.

Dear sir,
I would like to thank you for the great effort done to reach this stage…
I was trying to use the wm5 image on wm2003 but unfortunately I ended with dead pda.
I have reached step 6 successfully, but once I pressed Wireless + Power + Reset Nothing appears on the screen ... it remains blank with the power light off....
Please note that I had tough time trying to get the boot loader screen by pressing Wireless + Power + Rest I always got the hard rest screen. I tried almost 30 times till I got the screen. But now after reaching step 6, even if press hard rest or Wireless + Power + Reset nothing appears ( the device remain power off)
Any suggestion please.
Thanks and Best Regards
