Default Cannot install new programs to my PPC-6700 (Activesync Issue)

I'm trying to install the core pocket media player, and activesync freezes every time I open the add/remove programs window. Any suggestions for troubleshooting? I'm not gonna pay MS for support :!:

Thanks much!

Also, I did upgrade to 4.1 and had the same issues. Is there something I need to run on my PDA as well as active sync?

I now installed BETA 4.2 and still the same thing. Finally, I (accidentally) ran the setup file when the PDA was not connected. It didn't freeze Activesync this time, but it popped up a message saying that it would be installed next time the device was connected. It did, and all worked great.

So if you're having problems installing programs, unplug your PDA! :idea:
