Go ahead and use your CF cards or flash disk as you normally would, just be sure to back everything up, just in case.

I upgrade them both from a CF card, not Active Sync,. Rose Combs [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Terri Pannett Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2004 7:11 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: [Braillenote] losing data on CF cards etc I am wondering why some people have problems losing data from their CF cards when the card is plugged in before the BN is turned on and others don't. Does it happen with all BNs or just those which had new motherboards put into them and/or upgraded both hardware and software? I've never had a problem with either my old BN running Keysoft 3.06 and the old motherboard or the new BN running Keysoft 5.1. Could there be a link between upgrade BNs and this problem or does it happen to those with brand new BNs? Perhaps PDI can jump in here and explain why this problem exists at all?
