Thanks all. I'vejust bought a new motherboard for home, but since my company
provides the computers at work I'll have to suffer with slowness. I'll try
debugging on the device to see what happens.

One other question about this "ethernet connection".

Since I connect my HP iPaq h2200 Pocket PC via a USB port, how do I get an
ethernet connection to it?

Thanks.
