Problem with XDA Exec Rom update, please help!

[Bonna007]

Hi,
Downloaded the XDA Exec Rom update on to my laptop and then went about the install and followed the instructions. The next thing I know an error message pos up and when I look at my PDA the screen has gone completely blank!
I have hard restarted the PDA and just can't now get it to work. All I can see on an unlit screen horizontally at the top is 'USB' and at the bottom 'v1.00'.
ActiveSync will not recognise the device so now completely nadgered! Has Windows Mobile been completely wiped off the PDA?
Please help if you can!

I'm no expert but I had a similiar problem and resolved it as follows.
Disconnect the USB cable from the PC. Reboot the PC. Reconnect the USB. Run the ROM upgrade again and all should be well. I hope..... :lol:

I had this happen late last year, hard reset the device (using the two minus keys on the top row of the keyboard, at the same time press and hold the stylus in the reset button), then connect and re-run the new ROM installer, it wil take quite some time, about 50 mins if memory is correct, but this did work - Mke
