Someone else posted something then deleted it saying to click optimize for performance. It worked. Now i am getting average transfer speeds of 25MB\sec. It does take a little while to finish the last little bit but for big files its way faster. I had to click on the drive then ckick the name of the usb stick. Thanks for the help.

Just beware that this means you must use the Safe Device Removal icon in the taskbar, otherwise the drive may get corrupted if you just pull it out (that setting enables the cache).

I wouldn't buy either a Toshiba (poor reliability) or a Sony (overpriced and loaded with bloatware). Get a Dell Vostro.

my real world transfer speeds are about 10mb\sec and want to get it faster. thanks! if your transfer rates are 10Mb/s (10 MegaBITS per second), then you've got a USB 1.1 connection going on somewhere. Either your (1) USB drive is 1.1 or (2) the mobo connector is USB 1.1. If your USB drive is 1.1, it would be cheaper to buy a newer USB 2.0 drive and just transfer all your info to the new ...

One of the first things I'd check is the ribbon cable that connects between the system board and the display unit. This ribbon cable passes through the hinge for the display lid and is subject to working either end loose or partially fracturing in the hinge area.

First, let me say that I've never used the Dell Axim-51 PDA. But, as best I can tell, you're not the only one with problems . Apparently, there are several updates (also see here ) that should have been installed. And after a hard reset you may need to reinstall any updates. See this Cnet user-review . From what I can gather, the exact same hardware was marketed as...

Try different RAM. Be sure to use one stick and check manual for proper slot. Also, re-check your wiring from the case to the mobo. It is very easy to switch the wiring rows, or be off by one pin in placing the connections. Finally, how do you know that your replacement components are functioning? Are these coming from a working PC? Especially PSUs - they are notorious for being bad right ...
