As a result of having to re-install my OS (XP SP2), I have had to re-install
my programs to get the registry entries correct. When I try to install
ActiveSync from the HP disc (HP iPAQ rx1955), I get an error message saying
that the installation program cannot find "0\rapimgr.exe" (that's a zero).
At the end of the installation procedure, the splash screen for the disc
says that ActiveSync failed to install (possibly because of a lack of free
disc space)and recommends retrying. I can find rapimgr.exe in the ActiveSync
folder; it's there!! The Windows installation program reports 94 GB free
after the in-process installation.

When ActiveSync was still in the Add/Remove Program group, I clicked Remove.
In the System32 group, I have renamed rapi.dll to rapi.old. I would prefer
not to delete the ActiveSync folder as I would have to reinstall my add-on
programs, but I'm very open to suggestions.

Regards,
Richard
