Hi all,

Some days ago, i was to install TOFCLOCK HIMA WM6. But my i-mate Pocked PC works very slow.
Then try to back to WM2003, but here i has a problem - in the "serial" mode my desctop PC (Windows XP) dont see PockedPC. Same problem i has also with notebook (Windows XP).
Then I restart my PPC and when WM6 starded i seed that synchronization process work fine.

Don't understand, if synchronization worked why desktop PC can't see PPC in the SERIAL mode?

pls help me!

Yes, i'm in bootloader mode (RECORD+POWER+ACTION+RESET) and then see text on display "SERIAL".

Maybe WM6 lock USB connection?

Intrested that if i load WM6 as normally - synchronization via USB work fine.

Why dun you try loading other version of WM6? Maybe it is not as bad as what you think to make you go back to 2003?

Speed... I use my device 2 year and time to time was flashing new OS (WM2003CE, WM5, WM6) published on this forum.
And I can say that all new WM is not bed. He is more beautifuly, but does not fasted than 2003.

I guess some of the pioneers (itsme, buzz_lightyear, peter poelman and so on) should know. Buzz is still active on his own forum, haven't seen the others for quite a while. Perhaps dig deep in the wiki, dig up some very old threads, PM them...
