Hi!
I had recently terrible problem with my iPaq 6515a.... In the middle of ROM update (to v.1.20) my PC that I used to run update crashed (Blue screen). The update on the iPaq stopped at 71%, so I had to reset it. Since then it doesn't start or react to Reset.... Does anybody know how to bring my iPaq back to life? I would appreciate any suggestion or advise.

That's worrying, I was going to do the 1.21 upgrade today but stopped because it asked for AC power to the cradle (no idea how to do that).

My cradle has a small power adapter jack at the bottom rear of it. It takes 5VDC, center is + and outer ring is -.

As far as the ROM update goes. Will your unit charge the battery? Does the power LED turn amber when plugged into external power with the battery in the unit?
If it does then, maybe all is not lost. Will the unit turn on at all? Does it display anything on the screen? Be careful to look by shining a flashlight onto the screen itself because sometimes the backlight will not come on and it is hard to see the display.

You can flash rom version individually, instead of a full flash.
