Having multiple issues, please help.

First I can't seem to get my x5 to recognize my flash card. it's a Sandisk Ultra II 512. When I put the card in the Axim just says "name of driver location"? Should I need to install drivers to use a compact flash card?
The next problem is with bluetooth. When I go to the bluetooth icon on the pocket pc and click on it it says no bluetooth software installed?

Any help with these issues would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

You should not need to install drivers for compact flash cards. You can try to soft-reset the device with the card inserted.

Do you have any bluetooth hardware installed? The X5 does not come with built-in bluetooth. The message you are seeing probably actually says, "There is no Bluetooth hardware installed on this device."

Sometimes you have to remove the card, soft reset, then put the card back in.

I am afraid the card may be incompatible. Check the manual that came with your dell and see if it is CFI or CFII. that may bethe problem. as far as your bluetooth goes, sfot reset your device and then try to load the driver, you may be out of memory. if that does not work, try to remove some of the items on your today screen, they may be sopping some of the active memory.
Cheers
