WM5 & AS4 - How do I get out?!

I received a mean little gift from Dell and Microsoft yesterday! A copy of WM5 and AS4 for my Axim X50v. 12 hours later and after installing, soft resetting, hard resetting, downloading AS 4.1 and consulting several forums I'm fed up! I cannot get it to sync with both my laptop at home and my PC at work. I've checked the MY documents file direction. I've turned off the firewall. I think I've done it all and frankly I've got to get on with my life.

Does anyone know how I re-install PPC2003? Of course after that I'm going back to AS 3.8.

I should have known to leave well enough alone when everything was working fine before. Lesson learned...just to be forgotten again.

Try a search.
There are some threads about a utility on Dells site that you can download to go back.

The removal program through Dell worked great. They should have shipped it on the WM5 cd. All fixed and working fine on PPC2003 and AS 3.8. Now if I can only get this GPS program to work but that's another thread.

Thanks more than you know!

I need to roll back because I cannot establis a connection in AS4.0. I followed the directions and deleted my partnership but I cannot establish a new one.

So, does this program and routine allow you to roll back when you cannot get an AS connection? I presume it does since you were successful.

Not exactly. After the upgrade I ran fine (slow but operating) with my home PC. In my office networked environment I could not get AS4 and WM5 to sync, however, I DID have a connection. For several hours I felt like I was "right there: with getting it to work but never got it to sync contacts, etc. Unfortunately it sounds like you're in deeper than I was. The only thing I can suggest it to try getting a connection using a PC that is not tied to a secured network with shared drives (my problem). If that's already the case for you than I don't know that I have any other advise. I'll think about it and let you know if I come up with something.
