New to PDA's

[Phe0nix]

I purchased this Axim X5 on ebay and received it 2 days ago and i am unalbe to install a program that requires the installation of Microsoft.NET CF 2.0.

I am running ActiveSync 4.5 on my XP desktop PC. When i try to install .NET 2.0
i get the following error message on the X5 :

"SETUP FAILD" " The file "\Windows\Appmgr\Install\Microsoft.NET CD 2.0\CAB" is not a valid Windows CE setup file.


I'm not sure what my X5 is running ( Pocket PC 2002 or Windows Mobile 2003 ) but here is what is listed in the setting "Microsoft Pocket PC Version 3.011171 ( build 11178) "

Here is a link to the software i am trying to run if any of you X5 users would be good enough to try to get this application to run on your X5.

DVD Profiler, by Invelos Software, Inc.


Thanks



Issue solved:

It is a requirement that you must be running MS ActiveSync 4.2 or higher ( i'm new to all this ) but they didn't say if that was on the pc side or PDA side. My X5 was running Pocket PC 2002 and it uses ActiveSync
3.7 so i upgraded to Windows Mobile 2003 that must be running a newer version of ActiveSync as my error messages are gone now. I was running ActiveSync 4.5 on the PC side but that doesn't make a difference apparently. I wasn't able to tell what version of ActiveSync i was running on the PDA but did a search on the net for the specs and wala...
