How do I know which OS is on my PDA

Hi there, I have just acquired an Axim X5 and I need to install Windows Mobile 2003 on it. I have the disk but it says I need to use ActiveSync v3.7 which I think I have managed to find and download (not from MS of course because a newer version is out and why should they think that anyone might want/need something older?! And anyway the newer version is only for Mobile 2003 and up!). Because of the obvious complications, I would like to find out if my secondhand Axim already has the 2003 or is it the 2002. I have looked at "Start Settings System About" but the screen only mentions Pocket PC, NOTHING about Mobile 2002.

Hope my question makes sense. I know it could be useful to others

Thanks in advance

I'm not sure about the X5, but try Start/Settings/System/System information.
That's where it is on the newer models.
