AC adapter not connected

[heraklit]

quick question / clarification.
if i am connected via cable that allows me to charge my axim via USB as well as to sync it, can i perform normal ROM updates?
im asking, because ive been trying to change my PDAs language from german to english, and i have found solution that requires updating ROM.
unfortunately, when i choose option "Update ROM" it gives me an error, stating that AS adapter is not connected.
as i wrote, im not using a cradle - just a cable.
is there something within options that i need to change?
maybe on my PC?
or do i simply have to get a cradle that would allow me to connect my PDA to PC and AC at the same time?

To use the Dell Updates via ActiveSync you need to have AC power connected, it won't work with just USB power.

So you need a cradle or one of the cables that has a Y connector that allows you to plug in AC as well.
