Troubleshooting and Maintenance

This chapter gives solutions to common Pocket PC problems you may
encounter. It also provides guidelines on taking care of your Pocket PC.

NOTE: If you encounter a problem you cannot solve, contact your dealer for assistance.

7.1 Resetting Your Pocket PC

CAUTION: Resetting will cause unsaved data to be lost.

Resetting your Pocket PC is similar to restarting your desktop computer. It
restarts the operating system, but you will lose any unsaved data.

Occasionally, you may need to reset your Pocket PC; for example, you should
reset:

After you restore data from your desktop computer.

When your Pocket PC stops responding; in other words, it appears to be
“frozen” or “locked up.”

Use the stylus to press the reset button on your Pocket PC.
