I downloaded the R59758.EXE from dell. I'm going through the instructions, i backed up my axim, now on to installing the new rom. It says insert the dell update cd, which i don't have but i guess i downloaded the rom update already? the R59758.EXE? Or is their another file i didn't download?

No, that is the .EXE you need. Mine said the same thing when I upgraded my ROM

How do i install it? Everytime i double click the .exe it just unzips it, nothing about installing it onto the axim. I feel like a total newb but i can't figure it out. Should i put the .exe on the axim and run it on their?

It extracts it to C:\Dell\Drivers\R59756 on your computer. Go there and just double-click on Setup.exe.

I can't find a setup.exe in the extracted folder, it just has all the images and html for the tutorial.

Make sure you downloaded the update file, and not the instruction file.
