I've usually good at solving most of the problems with my device, a Dell
X51v, but this one is puzzling.

Last week, the device was working fine and able to sync without a problem.
Since 2/12 I've not able to sync. Placing the device in the cradle I get the
typical tone as the device connects to my laptop; however Activesync never
recognizes the device is there.

In the past, I've tried a couple of things which seem to fix this.

1. Do a soft-reset on the WM device
2. Manually start AS on the laptop
3. Manually starting on the WM device.
- clicking sync

Nothing seems to work.

The only clue to what is going on is an error message I received back when
this first occurred stating. An showing in Error Reporting when I rest the
device.

'This error report includes information regarding the condition of
services.exe..."

Checking the error report I see an EventType: WinCE501bException

On a desk or laptop I would assume I have a corrupted services.exe file. I
have no reason to believe otherwise, but how do I go about correcting this
problem and get back to normal.

Also, before someone tells me to check/reload Activesync on my laptop. I've
got to devices. My older x5 works and sync fine to my laptop.

Hi,
Did you check to make sure that the services that ActiveSync is dependent on
are running?

On the WM side? What services need to be running?

On the PC side they are running as my X5 still syncs without a problem.
