PDA virgin and not a happy chap.
About 3 weeks ago I gat my 1st PDA an iPAQ2210.
Sence then I have to reset several time s a day. I can't use the SD card and my bluetooth GPS at the same time as the GPS keeps needing to be reconected.
Yesterday I downloaded HP's updated bluetooth driver, now if the unit is of for any lenght of time I have to do a soft reset to get the unit going again as the power button will not function.
Can anybody help.
Cheers
David

Strange. Do you have any programs running from the SD card when the Pocket PC goes to sleep? Do you often insert and remove this card from the Pocket PC?

I only have mp3 files on the SD card. On the CF card I have sat nav, 2 games and a number of notes, excel files and my back up file.
Thanks for looking

It could be either a defective SD card or a problem with the Pocket PC itself. Are you able to borrow someone's card to test it?

Also, try running Pocket Mechanic... There's a SD test option in this software.

Sometimes a camera or the Pocket PC can corrupt the directory on the SD card. Try the software I linked in my previous post then.
