When you have free time, I'd try the backup-then-hard reset route, anyway, just to eliminate possibilities.

Thanks, Janak. It's such a pain when the proverbial gremlins attack, isn't it? I think I got one for sure because my VCR just started "rebooting" itself, rats! :bad-words:
Just FYI, the extra software I've installed (practically from the day of purchase) is just the basic stuff: GigaBar, Battery Pack, uBook Reader, WordBook, Pocket TV Browser, and MineSweeper. The most recent was Pocket TV Browser maybe as far back as 6 months ago. The system password I use is also the basic 4-digit #'s.
Would you rec that I try the patch/upgrade? I have *NOT* upgraded anything on the OS. I've read that there's both a patch and an OS upgrade and that they fix some of the old bugs, but my bugs are mild (the blank screen for a few seconds when soft resetting, the first alarms of the day not turning the iPaq on). So far I never had a problem reading either the SD (256K) or the CF (1MB) cards & they stay in the iPaq all the time, so I decided if it's not really broken why try to fix things, especially since some users have mentioned new errors after upgrading. I only use the cards for storage of large files or libraries, not yet for running programs.
Anyway, if you get any ideas, please let me know. I'll keep you posted of my results. Thanks again. :wink:
