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.” 

Follow this procedure to reset your Pocket PC: 

1.  Remove the SD/MMC card (if installed). 

2.  Use the stylus to press the reset button on the side of 

your Pocket PC.
