Restoring Factory Default State
In some cases, you may need to restore your Pocket PC to the factory default
state by clearing the memory (RAM) from your Pocket PC. For example, you
should clear the memory:
(
When your Pocket PC does not respond after being reset.
(
When you forget your password.
Clearing the memory means all data you have entered in RAM, including all
files, system settings and additional programs you have installed, will be erased.
(Programs installed to ROM at the factory are not affected.)
CAUTION:

To ensure the integrity of your data should it be necessary to clear the memory, you’re
