I lost my build in storage (X50V)

I already tried a Hard-Reset but it doesn't work...

You might want to do a search of these boards: This problem has been mentioned before.

To give you the bottom line, you're probably going to have to call Dell about getting a replacement. The only thing that's worked for some people is starting a hard-reset by holding the power button and pressing the reset button in the back with the stylus, then cancelling it when given the option on the next screen. Unfortunately, though, that didn't work for me. Nor did a hard-reset.

It seems that this issue arises when files are being copied to the built-in storage and the unit soft-resets (such as when installing several applications, and one of the installers resets the device -- I think this is what happened to mine).

Something like this happened to me last week. I thought it had disappeared, but it had actually been renamed BIS2. I had to change back the name in order for it to show up again.

Did it appear under My Pocket PC as BIS2? My BIS does not appear to have been renamed, it's just vanished.

Try the following trick. Do the hard rest, but when the option comes up to go through or cancel, choose to cancel. This has caused the BIS to show up again for many users.

I tried that. Still no BIS.
