Possible Windows Mobile 2003 Soft-Reset Bug?
This article (Google translation here) details a potential problem that has been cropping up in a few places with Pocket PC 2003. Apparently, a particular database (DB_notify_events) grows with every soft reset, to the point (perhaps after 50 soft resets or so) that ActiveSync becomes extremely unstable. These guys have linked to a small program that apparently "cleans up" this database on a soft reset.
I'm not sure how common this problem is or not, but if you're having this issue, you might want to check out the article; however, run the program attached at your own risk. Microsoft has not yet confirmed if a problem exists, but if they do, a patch would presumably be forthcoming.

I am definitely having this problem. My ipaq 1945 has been freezing from time to time.... I wonder what the specific key is, so I can edit it manually. Don't know if I trust a program in a foreign language....
Anyone having a problem in which Calender reminders freeze their pocket pc as well??? This has also been happening...

I've heard that the presence of Pocket Plus and scheduled Sprite Pocket Backup Plus backups can both cause this problem.

Screen shows...
According to the screen shown up its not registry... I think its within a CE database store (those system databases) which keeps appending new entry.

It's because I'm out of it. :morning: As others have commented, it's a Pocket PC database and not a registry entry.
