Default Viewsonic V37 Pocket PC

Hey, i was just wondering does anyone know where i can get drivers for my PDA (Viewsonic V37 Pocket PC) because i have lost the CD. I have looked on the viewsonic web site but they don't seem to have them, does anyone know where they could be?

Thanks.

The v37 is only USB 1.0 anyway.

All you should require is ActiveSync from Microsoft. I haven't had to install in additional drivers.

Edit: And there aren't any drivers for the v37 for Windows. Only the for accessories for the v37.

Windows Drivers for the ViewSonic V37 comes with ActiveSync 3.7 or higher currently at 3.8 and can be downloaded from Microsoft. If you're looking for drivers for the device for external components such as keyboard or wireless SD card these can be obtained from ViewSonic but use the US site as the Australian site isn't very helpful.

www.viewsonic.com
www.microsoft.com

I used to have a V37 but had too many problems with it and returned it after 6 months of problems but this could be because I upgraded it to Windows Mobile 2003. I hope you don't have the same troubles.

I wouldn't call them drivers for the v37 specifically just the software to intergrate all the crap :P

Upgrading the v37 to 2003 will stop all external devices from working. Found this the hard way, but managed to get a new keyboard on warranty

If you have to same problem I'll dig up the patch to get every working sweet again.
