changes to open files will be lost. Your other files on the internal disk will almost always be safe.

It is possible (although unlikely) that performing a soft reset after a program failure may cause the netpad to lose the information on the internal disk; it could even prevent the reset from working at all. If this happens, you will have to perform a “hard reset”.

Important: A hard reset resets the netpad completely, and all information on the Internal disk will be lost.

To perform a hard reset :

1. Remove the netpad from the docking station (if applicable).

2. Remove the main battery.

3. Press and hold down the On/Off button (on the top of the unit).

4. While continuing to hold down the On/Off button, press and release the Reset button.

5. Release the On/Off button.

6. Refit the battery into the netpad—the unit will power up and you will hear one beep during boot-up.

Note: Hard resetting the netpad will delete the partnership on the netpad. You may delete and re-create the partnership on the

PC, or create another partnership with a new name. Refer to

ActiveSync’s online help for more details on this operation.
