First, still no luck with that manual. But, as for getting the old one
back, guess I kind of took a chance and cheated a bit and it worked. For,
I
deleted those files out of the manual folder on the Flashdisk, then
deleted
that manual folder itself and did the c3 c4 reset and my old manual was
back
in its manual folder on the Keysoft system disk. Guess I was trying to be
lazy, as I always have to re-establish my ActiveSync partnership with my
PC
when I do the 4 5 6 reset. Although, so far, that seems to be all I've
have
had to do when I have to do the 4 5 6 reset, re-establish that partnership
and change my time zone back to where it should be.

Hi Maria,
Many thanks for your help, but no good I'm afraid! If I attempt to run
either of the executables, I get the message "is not a valid Win32
application"! I've managed at least to get my original manual back on the
system by doing a 4-5-6 reset, but I know it's the old one as it still
talks
about calibrating the battery gauge, and if I look at the new manual on
the
site, that's all been changed! So I've no clue what's going on and the
description on the site is far from clear imho! For one thing, if you were
to follow the instructions as given, you'd simply download two zip files,
and as far as I knew, these systems don't handle zip files! Makes me real
nervous about what might happen when we get real PK upgrades!
Paul.

I don't have a PK, but judging by the file names in your post below, it
should work the same way. Yes, unzip both the BNB and UK variation files,
and copy the two .exe files you just unzipped to the Manual folder of the
Flash Disk, and then perform the C3-C4 Reset. The Reset I just stated is
the one listed on the PDI web site.
If that still doesn't work, try running the two .exe files through the
Utilities Menu>Application Program option; first, run the BNB.exe file,
and
after you have run that one, run the UK_BNB.exe file. In both cases,
leave
the "Command Line?" field blank. I'm assuming that the installation
prompts
will instruct you as to the types of resets you would need to perform
during
the installation; I would guess that it would be the C3-C4 Reset because
that is the one referred to in the manual as a "Standard Reset", and this
is
the Reset I perform on the BN during installation of programs or when
placing new User Guide files in the Manual folder of the Flash Disk.
HTH,
Maria

Maurice or anyone else who can come to the rescue please!
Tried to update the onboard manual of my PK and now get messages like
"cannot find table of contents" and ditto for the index. Dense I might
be,
but the instructions aren't clear on the site I'm afraid! There are two
zip
files, bnb.zip and ukbnb.zip, each of which contains an application
bnb.exe
and ukbnb.exe. I presume if I want to have the UK variation, do I have to
unzip both of these and copy the executables into the created Manual
folder
on Flashdisk? How can I get back to a working user guide from here please?
Thanks.
Paul.
