I just got a BlackJack, installed the disk with ActiveSync 4.0. When I first tried, it wouldn't connect, my phone reconized the conn., but pc didn't. I tried unplugging and plugging back in a couple of times. It took, but when pc went to retrieve setting from phone, pc just rebooted. I upgraded to 4.5, same exact thing happened. Can anyone tell me what is wrong, or at least send me in the right direction??

The following vista update could not be installed even after repeated attempts, online or offline. The details regarding the update as obtained from update history are quoted below. The link http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=932471 surely provided more information, but was of no use to me as I cannot follow that jargon.

Can anybody please help? "Update for .NET Framework 3.0: x86 (KB932471) Installation date: ‎14-‎07-‎2007 20:22 Installation status: Failed Erro…

This morning (Sat. the 14th ) a response to my additional query for the Kb928365 arrived. It confirmed that this Kb is associated with Net 2 and I can make the choice to uninstall Net 2. <quote> If you don't want to install the update KB928365, I suggest we remove .NET Framework 2.0. If we don't remove .NET Framework 2.0, the update KB928365 will be detected and offered repeatedly. In addition, as other versions of ..NET Framework have similar function with .NET Framework 2.0, we don't need to install it. I would like to explain in order to remove .NET Framework components completely, I suggest we remove all the versions of .NET Framework. If they…
