So, the time came for me to hard reset and re-install everything, I figure since I'm doing all this I might as well upgrade to A03.

I go to Dell's site, go to support, tell it I have an X5 and the only ROM upgrades listed are A00 and A01.

Where do I get A03?!?!

Sorry for the frantic tone....I just spent the past hour or so making sure I had the most updated versions of the software I was loading back on. I'd like to get this over with. :rolling: :exc:

Phooey!! From what I heard it actually did some decent stuff. I'll wait for a few minutes to see if anyone else chimes in....otherwise I'm just going to start reinstalling stuff.

It's listed weird on their website.....the downloads are labeled horribly in my opinion. You want the file that is "R59756.exe".

If I remember correctly, you have to click on the one that says "A01" and then it will show you the A03 that is file R59756.exe.

So, are there plans for a nuclear weapon on there or something? How in the world is a person supposed to know that?!?!!

Thanks for chiming in deftech.

Alright, just looked at their site. To be clear, click on "Dell Axim X5 ROM Update for Pocket PC 2002, v.04100300EN, A01"

After that, you'll notice it says:
