HP OmniGo 100 Message #1 Posted by Adam on 4 Feb 2005, 7:32 p.m. Hello, I changed both the back up and main batteries of my HP OmniGo 100 and now the unit is not functioning properly. When turned on the screen just displays the OmniGo logo. Does anyone know how to fix my problem?? Thank you, Adam amor3y@yahoo.com

Re: HP OmniGo 100 Message #2 Posted by Raymond Del Tondo on 4 Feb 2005, 10:11 p.m., in response to message #1 by Adam Hello, It could be possible that you changed the batts while the machine OS wasn't shut down. You could try a soft reset, or if that doesn't work, a hard reset using the reset pin hole. Raymond

Re: HP OmniGo 100 - How do i reset? Message #4 Posted by Raymond Del Tondo on 5 Feb 2005, 7:02 a.m., in response to message #3 by Adam Soft Reset: SHIFT+ON+PgDn System Reset: Immediately after turning on the machine press and hold the 'C' key for a second. You'll be asked to initialize the RAM. Press 'Y' to initiate a Hard Reset, which erases all data in RAM. If you press 'N' instead the machine will try to do a normal restart. This procedure was taken from the OmniGo 100 user manual;-) HTH Raymond

Re: HP OmniGo 100 Message #6 Posted by Raymond Del Tondo on 5 Feb 2005, 8:43 p.m., in response to message #5 by Jeff D IIRC, you can edit the config files, and REM out the loader call. Then a simple restart should do the job. Alternatively, there should be kinda DOS-Box either on the desktop or inside an application. Raymond
