Won't power on with power button after software load

Hi. Looked for a post that covered this and don't think I saw one. Hope I'm not being redundant. I have had the same issue on 2 Axim X5 units but not a third. After installing some programs,(doesn't seem to be a specific one;I tried to load just one at a time and didn't make a difference), the X5 will no longer power up via the power button. I have to press the soft reset to power on. It will power off with the power button and the light will turn on and off, but not power back on. It works fine until loading software. I'm loading Bluetooth CF driver V1.5 for TrueMobile 300, Yahoo Messenger, Ambicom WL1100 wireless, Dell Snap-on Keyboard V.1.26 and Belkin Navigation System. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I've got the same problems... one x5 is fine, the other x5 isn't. I downloaded MS.net Framework, ListPro, Olivetree Bible reader and Acrobat Reader 1.0... everything worked fine. When I added the SnapOn keybrd, the PWR button stops functioning...Somebody help us out here.

... and I think I found something... go to Dell's download section... there's a link to the SnapOn Keyboard download... I've got a number of apps downloaded now and the PWR button works... good luck!
