If I did it correctly, it did also cause a crash. What puzzles me is, that the 
system did not crash right from the beginning. The first month, or so, I did 
not have any probs. If it is a hardwhere problem, it should always have 
existed, shouldn't it?

In addition to that, I found out that I have a shift in the scheduled times of 
two hours, i.e. the appointments on the handheld appear two hours earlier 
than in Korganizer. 

I reset the handheld and copied the data from PC to organizer, adjusted the 
timezones of PC and Organizer to GMT, but without success.

I blame that prob on M$ Outlook, as this particular prob did first occour 
after I synced the organizer with Outlook in the office. 

Anyone else having problems while syncing with two different systems?

Greetings 

	Claus
