Hi,
How do I reinstall the pocket pc OS, the reason being I've been installing tons of applications and demos to try and now that I've got that out of my system want to reinstall and start fresh?
Also I'd like to install Outlook 2002 (I have Office XP CD for the desktop)

You can do a hard reset. The iPAQ can be hard reset by pressing the tiny recessed button on the bottom of the unit while simultaneously pressing the two outer shortcut buttons on the front of the unit. Hold all three while the screen fades and then turn the unit back on, and you can start fresh.

hey dude, you seem to be the fountain of all knowledge on this forum!!!!
Will doing a hard reset clear the registary and everything?, what about rouge files in the program files and system directory?
Which buttons is it (calender, mail, itask)
Any ideas on Outlook 2002, can I do it from the CD I have?
Thanks anyhow for all your help
