Well there is a chance, but it depends on the Wi-Fi card you are using. Most
Wi-Fi cards required ActiveSync to setup the registry. Some cards may
however have a CAB file that will install everything you need. Generally if
you look in your My Programs folder on the PC and in My Programs/Microsoft
Activesync you may find the folder where the drivers are stored, you would
need to copy the correct version of the CAB file to the Axim, then tap on it
to install it on the Axim. Note that this will also delete the file from the
Axim.
