Before you begin: THIS CAN ONLY BE DONE IN XP WITH ACTIVESYNC 4 ON THE CRADLE

Ensure Microsoft ActiveSync software is installed on the computer.

Connect your device to a computer using a sync cable or cradle and confirm the ActiveSync connection is successful prior to launch the system update. 

If you have data stored in your built-in storage, copy the contents to a folder in My Device\My Documents. 

Use ActiveSync to back up your Pocket PC data. For additional information on backing up and restoring data, open ActiveSync on your computer and click Help on the menu bar. 

Connect the AC adapter. Disable any power management modes and close all programs on the host computer.



Special notice:

After completing the system update, the Data Backup Application on the Axim can be used to restore previous backup files from a previous operating system release.

However, there is a possibility some new features may be disabled.

Dell recommends to only backup PIM data from a previous system and restore to a new system. 

All other applications should be re-installed again on the new system to make sure new features are not disabled.

Please click the AximUpdate.exe to run the update.
