I am in need of the driver that came with the Axim X5. Does anyone have this. My X5 sync for over a year and now all of a sudden, it won't sync. I have fdisked my computer and now it's asking for a driver for the new usb hardware.

Can anyone help? Please!
Thanks
Kim

You should not need a driver. What OS is it?

You should disconnect the Axim, reboot, install Activesync from Microsoft's website and once AS is installed, connect the X5.

Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.

Shame on you Howard!

With some systems the X5 will need a USB Driver before it will connect.

You want to download "R55367.exe", from HERE.

I stand corrected

I do remember that USB driver with my X5 - I never had to install it though.

Was it only 95 and ME systems that needed it?

I am running Windows 2000 and yes it did ask for a USB Driver. Thanks many times over, this site has always helped me out when I was in need.

I remember when I was running 98SE, that I needed it.

Using XPPro now, but haven't synced with it yet. I'd be willing to bet that XP won't need it though.

I'm running Windows 2000 and never had to use it.

Oh well - not to worry

Unplug your USB Cable > uninstall ASync > reboot your PC > Reinstall ASync > reboot your PC > Plug in your USB Cable > place your Axim in the cradle.

Shakes her head NOPE that didn't work either

What is up with this thing???? Could it be the cradle although it charges and all..........

For me, it was installed automatically from the CD when I first set up the X5 and was certainly needed for WinXP. The 'default' windows USB driver for mobile devices wouldn't work with the X5 on the original PPC02 ROM and there were a lot of people that had problems in the early days with their PC not recognizing the device. I've been recommending to people since then but at least one user with a 'new' X5 installed AS 3.8 from M$ and didn't need the X5 driver so I'm assuming either the latest ROM makes it unnecessary or AS 3.8 or maybe WinXP SP2 does.

But I don't have the CD that came with the Axim and I am running Win2000 Pro.
