| I'm having a number of problems with the Casio PA-2400W that I've not had with my other handhelds.
1) Very often the screen is unworkable and I have to re-calibrate.
2) Very often when I turn the device on, it gives me the message that there is a problem with the storage card (I have a brand new CF card, loaded with most of the programs I use on the Casio).
3) troubles synching (this problem I've had with HP 360lx, but the Casio while synching a file over to My Documents from the laptop will actually do a soft-reset by itself)
4) sometimes, with installing cabs or installing a program with activesync, the program while installing tells me there is a CAB file missing. This especially happens when I try to install to the CF card or when I am installing a cab file from the CF card.
5) The Casio just turned itself on and is now trying to sync. I did not turn it own. There was an alarm noise and it just put itself on.
6) How do you turn off the internal alarms that go with Pocket Outlook??? I don't use the Casio for days but it sits there turned off and blinking a red light. |

| i guess the screen is bad luck..
maybe format the cf card once more, to fat16
dont make cabs read only, ce 2.0-2.11 hates that. and usually i copy the cabs to ram before installing, i noticed at least ce 2.0 prefers that.
that's all my ideas for now :/ |

I'm not sure this is going to be of much help, but have you downloaded all the available drivers for your PA-2400W? Casio was quite good in coming up with fixes for bugs. You can get them here: http://www.casio.com/support/driverdownloads/industrialdevices.htm
I'd also look at the PA-2400U drivers, expecially Service Pack 1, which may help with some of your problems.
Hope this helps,

| To disable the alarm, all you gotta do is open up the event on the Calendar and uncheck the "Reminder" box. Edited by CE Geek 2006-10-17 4:49 AM

| Okay, I think it was a bad CF card. It is in my desktop now - and taking forever to copy files from it to the hard drive.
Next question - does the PA-2400W charge the rechargeable batteries? I have my new batteries in the device - but no light is on to show it is charging. And when I go into Control Panel - the Power properties doesn't show that there are batteries in the device. |

| What I have discovered is that the PA-2400W only takes AA alkaline batteries - not rechargeable and it doesn't charge them.
Has anyone found different? |
