Dell X51v Rollback to AS 3.8

I am trying to roll back to AS 3.8. I uninstall 4.1 and reinstall 3.8 on my PC with no problem. When I put the X51v into the cradle, I cannot get it to connect. My wife' s X50v connects fine, so I assume PC software and all hardware is OK. I notice that the X51v has no way to delete / reinstall AS on it. What am I missing???

Thanks

any version of AS before 4.1 isn't compatible with WM5

If I try to upgrade her X50v with 2003 on it to AS 4.1, should I expect joy or pain?

I believe you will find that WM5 will only work with AS 4.0 or higher.

It will work, but you lose the ability to wifi sync...
I didn't wifi sync anyway so it doesn't bother me

AS 4.1 will be fine for both WM2003 & WM2005 ...

but AS 3.8 will not work for WM5 ....

so ...in your case ... AS 4.1 will works for both device ...

Using 4.1 for X50v and X51v Works fine

I'm using both X50v and X51v with AS 4.1 with no problems, we did experience some problems after a hard reset on the X51v and using a backup from SPB backup, but resolved it, other than that everything functions within normal parameters.

Good Computing,
