| The *&%*ing Symbol WiFi adaptor caused my Izzi Pro to reset again, and I don't even have my IR adaptor (lent it to a friend two days ago) to reestablish the partnership.
Seems that what I need is a way to backup internal memory to the CompactFlash card, with a program than can be run from the card in case of a hard reset and restore everything. Anyone can recommend such a program? (Preferably free, but I'll consider anything.) |

| Actually, than may be an interesting little program to work on. Although there are bound to be things that are hard to back up (Microsoft tends to write things this way). |

| I don't know such programs, simply because the Jornada comes with an hp application for that.
As a matter of fact a lot of PPCs have that included as well.
So if someone develops such a program, it'd be aimed at older HPCs like yours that do not come with that function. |

| Well, if there's a newer MIPS H/PC with such a utility, maybe I could give it a try. |

| *sigh* If only bSquare hadn't run screaming.. bSquare Backup would do nicely. (Part of bUseful tools)
OOI, you can use ActiveSync to make a backup image - no use for you right now granted. |

| NEC MobilePro 790 comes with a backup util in the 16MB flash-ROM (14MB usable).
It runs on MIPS with HPC2000, wince3.0, core2.11.
Snappy! |

| That sounds interesting, Snappy! Can you e-mail me a copy of that? |

I'd be interested in knowing what HPC device you are using, since the HP Jornada's have the backup function available to them and the NEC Mobilpro's come with bSquare's Backup software? |

| Lol Snappy you blasted onto this forum as fast as I did. (And for no apparent reason at the time like me too  ) |

| Heh sounds about right  |
|

| Sadly it seems I don't have time to write that backup program, and the WiFi card just hard-reset my machine again. I figure I'll just stop trying to use it. It's a pity, as I did want WiFi, and because the card cost me a few dollars, but it's just not worth the hassle. |

| ET3D,
Drop me a PM with your email. I may have something that will do the job. Yes I could look it up in the forum registration list... Yes. I'm lazy...
Also which CPU you need.
EDIT: Scrub that, found a redist mirror:
http://www.pocketpcarchives.com/files/ToolPack_DEO.exe
It blows the cabs up with it, just fish for the ezBackup one for your Platform / CPU. |
