I scheduled the backup to occur at 1 AM. My Dell Axim x51v was in the charging cradle all night. I expected the backup to occur at that time. It did not. Instead, when I attempted to use the device at 7am, after I reset the device, because it was frozen, it began the backup at that time. Could the scheduled 1 AM backup in the charging cradle have caused the device to freeze, and then restart immediately after the reset? I have version 1.1.1, Build 2021

I had the same problem all the time. This is a bug (not Spb but WM2003se & WM5)... I fixed this using Tweaks2k2 and adjusting:

Tweaks >>> System Tweaks >>> Collection 3 >>> Alarm Fix for WM2k3/5 (Set to 80).

... most people don't seem to have problems, but mine have always been an issue and this has been the fix. If you don't have Tweaks2k2 (I recommend it if you don't) then you should be able to find the Registry key for this by searching the site or google.

Thanks. I'll review that fix. Another possiblity. Haven't tried it yet, but it seems like it might work. I noticed that my "power save" when using external power (when the device is cradled) was checked. That means the device is "off" when I have it scheduled for backing up at 1 AM. When I turn it on in the morning, the boot process possibly conflicts with the initiation of the backup. I'll try that and let you know if the system still freezes.
