ok it still has the problem from a full reset, and I now have a different 2210 after taking the other 1 back and still the same probs :cry:
However I have found that active sync when uninstalled will, kill my user profile in XP with lots of dcom errors (no it aint the blaster worm) restoring to a point just before, fixes it, and this problem microsoft must know about. maybe fixed in 3.8
Plus I have found that if I leave the 2210 in the cradle while booting up the pc, I get a stall at the bios prompt sometimes , hopefully this will be fixed with a new bios upgrade or maybe a prob with the cradle ?
using an MSI 875p neo motherboard...
