I was loading up a application and it said "fatal error" and has a button that says "reset" to press and it wont work. Tried removing the batteries and it still wont do anything! Is there a way to reset my palm or what? I need this puppy up and runnin again :) LMK if you have any idea's!

Thanks,
Chris

Yeah you need to do a hard reset.. unscrew stylus and then hit that hole on the underside.
mind you will lose all your data.. so your last hotsync will be your data.

If an app is causing problem take it out of the hotsync manager so when it hot sync's it does not put it back in.

You've received GREAT advice so far. They missed one thing, though. They forgot to tell you that this belongs in GENERAL HARDWARE, not Off Topic. :p

Well :p to you too;) Actually on the back there is a tiny hole for the reset and if you push it you dont loose any data :D

Thanks for the help guys!

On a palm it wouldnt matter if you lost the data anyway..

When it syncs up it makes a backup of everything on the device on your hard drive.
