Hi Paul,

Appreciate the reply and the tip.  For info:
1. COM 1 is free and solely used by the serial connection to
the iPAQ cradle. 
ActiveSync is not running. I used Windows task
Manager/Processes to end 
process of WCE......
2. hypertrm.exe was at 115200 bps, 8, N, 1, and no flow
control or handshaking
3. Tried pressing enter on the PC several times as well as
the calendar button 
on the iPAQ.

There is no "boot>" on the terminal window. 
Displayed is just a blinking 
vertical cursor, no reaction to any keyboard entry
(including enter).  I have 
tried hostii.exe (but I have no usb connector from the
cradle) so that was 
kinda stu... of me, I have tried mtty.exe with the same
results.  I have tried 
sliding battery switch to off, soft/hard reset, pressing
center of joypad with 
reset, button combination with reset.  I have tried removing
the battery 
connection by removing the back cover using a T6 Torx driver
and reinstalling.

I am actually going desperate coz my daughter is anxious
(ber birthday will be 
in April 24) to show it to her friends (will be guests).   I
can't buy a 
replacement since this was a gift from a good friend in
Europe; I can't send 
it back for repairs (he may no longer want me to be a
friend); I don't know of 
any Compaq Service in  the Philippines; and honestly, nobody
here in the 
Philippines seem to know what to do with it other than use
it as a 
paperweight.

Again, thanks and sorry for the litany.  Hope to hear from
you again.

Happy Easter and regards from the Philippines.

Louie
