ViewSonic Pocket PC 2003 Upgrade Problems

Last Updated Wednesday, January 23, 2008 4:50 PM

Well, I won my V37 last December. Around march I ordered the Upgrade. Upon upgrading it died. The upgrade process completed but when I went to do a cold boot after upgrading it just sat on the "Please wait for 30 seconds" and doesn't respond after that.

I emailed viewsonic, they've had me downgrade my rom (thanks for the link VS support!) I was then able to get back into the V37 w/ PC2002. I was told to try upgrading again. I've upgraded again, and I still have the same problem "Please wait for 30 seconds"

Anyone else run into this problem or have any suggestions?

Sorry guys, I can't send you the link. You can contact ViewSonic though and see if they will provide you with the downgrade ROM link

I was wondering if any had the pocket pc 2003 upgrade. I won one last year and missed out on the free upgrade cd. If anyone has it available or know where I may receive, please respond to the following email address: johnobaby@hotmail.com. Thanks!

I need the Pocket PC 2002 downgrade image. I am having a hard time getting help from viewsonic with the ftp support. I am getting the problem where after I upgrade my system will go to the "please wait 30 seconds" then it goes dark and becomes unresponsive, After about 5 minutes it will boot into winmo 2003, but the screen won't be backlit and the system behaves very oddly. Please help with the downgrade image; somebody! :(
