Is it possible??? I have tryed several things... Activesync 4.0 first won't install on windows 98, but I got activesync 3.0 to install. Then I hook my Cingular 8125 up through USB and clicked next for activesync to find my phone and it dosen't find it. Now I haven't tryed USBswitch... and If that does work I need it in Cab for pocket install, but if that doesn't... then read on....
I even went as far as to download daemon tools to see if I could emulate windows xp, but sad to say, the newest version dosen't support windows 98 anymore (sound familiar??) Good, because I downloaded a down graded version of daemon tools and got a wear error saying it can't find my SIDI driver or something like that (LONG story short and 3 hours later I'm fed up with my emulation tricks, my outdated computer, and all the ERRORs that come with It.....)
If there is some way I could emulate Xp that would be nice... Or even better, hack my Activesync 3.0 to make it able to find my 8125 (then again is it even compatable with windows 98??) Or maybe an alternet way or progy to access my cingular through USB. would sooo tickle the fancy (and maybe the fancy of others in my situation too)... Who knows, any suggestions or tips, or articles or anything would much be obliged.

First, the bright side of the situation: your portable device is probably more stable than the desktop PC.
I think the most you're going to get to happen is moving a miniSD card from the one to the other.

as u can c, activesync 3.8 is the version thats supported in 98, but from experience, USB support in 98 wasnt that good :?
maybe if u have BT or IR u could sync with that =S
or u could try upgrading to xp.
FYI:
End of support for Windows 98 and Windows Me

I didn't think Windows Mobile 5 supported anything below AS4.0.
Does it even work with 3.x?

I am having issues syncing my niki to my desktop. I have been able to sync to my laptop which is running 32 bit Vista Ultimate, but whenever I try and sync it to my desktop running 64 bit Vista Ultimate I get the error saying I need activesync 4.5 or newer to complete the sync. Both machines are up todate as far as updates and both have windows mobile device center installed.????
I would like to know whether anyone has a problem syncing their 02 XDA Atom running windows mobile 5.0 with windows 7 Home premium.I plugin phone with USB to my Win 7 and my windows can't even recognise my phone.
I am trying to pinpoint whether this is specific to my own hardware issue or is this something that everybody else experiencing with their 02 XDA Atom phone.
Thank you.

if your PC using Win 7, of course you have to use WMDC to sync with your device..
and you can download it from here

Hi Hakim,
The link that you posted point to a page not found in Microsoft's website."Windows Mobile Device Center", or WMDC, is only available for Windows Vista.
Maybe Microsoft no longer supports WMDC beyond Vista. Thanks for the tips anyway.
Cheers
