Belkin Bluetooth adapter crashed my Axim X5

I just installed a Belkin Bluetooth adapter on my Dell Axim X5. The software seemed to install OK and the card was flashing. However the Axim started to do all sorts of strange things. Firstly it wouldn't switch on unless I used the reset button. Then it wouldn't switch off. Performance ground to a halt. So I removed the card and switched on. The Axim appears to have completely crashed - there is just a basic screen and all my data has vanished. If I try to open a program I get fatal error messages. What on earth have I done and is there any way of rescuing the machine?

Regards

you might have better success with this one in the X5 section of the forums

Its the crappy 2003 bluetooth manager software - using plain bluetooth driver - seems ok - but bluetooth manager software is very unstable - I had to hard reset and reload all software - if your using for anything other than basic mobile connection I would forget it !Have you tried hard reset?
