HP iPAQ 500 Voice Messenger Series - Resetting the Device
Sometimes you need to reset your iPAQ if, for example, it is not responding to your pressing a button or your tapping the screen.There are two types of resets.

• Soft Reset - A soft reset stops all running applications, but does not erase any programs or saved data.
• Factory or Hard Reset - A factory or hard reset clears all user-installed settings, programs, and data, and restores your iPAQ to factory settings.

Performing a Soft ResetPerform a normal or soft reset to stop all running applications, to restart the iPAQ after installing a new application, or if the iPAQ locks up.CAUTION:Make sure to close all running applications before performing a soft reset, since a soft reset erases all unsaved data in such applications.Perform a soft reset using one of these two options.

• Turn off the iPAQ by holding down the End key.1 - End Key
• Remove the battery of your iPAQ.

Performing a Factory or Hard ResetPerform a factory or hard reset when there is a need to clear all settings, programs, and data from the RAM.CAUTION:Performing a hard reset will return the iPAQ to its default settings and it loses all information (files and settings, among others) that is not recorded in the ROM. Back up all important information or data before performing a hard reset.Follow these steps to perform a hard reset and return your iPAQ to factory settings.

1. Turn off your iPAQ by holding down the End key.
2. Then hold down the center of the 4-Way Navigation key and turn on the iPAQ again while continuing to do so.1 - 4-Way Navigation Key2 - End Key
3. A confirmation screen opens asking whether you want to perform a hard reset or not. SelectYes . The iPAQ will reboot with its original factory settings.

NOTE:The applications and data present on your iPAQ before performing the hard reset can be reinstalled by synchronizing your iPAQ with a computer using ActiveSync/WMDC (Windows Mobile Device Center).NOTE:If you don't want the iPAQ playing a tune after you turn it on, create a new text document and save the document as StartUp.wav. Replace this new document with the file on your device.

I have a solution for this

Your pre-solution is located above. More information is available in the comments

We will need to check the boot ini file first. Then we would need to check the configuration for startup errors.

My name is Bruce

try downloading the original rom and reflashing it

try taking battery out for 6hours then reinstall and hard rest.
this works on mine. bob

Solution (on my hx2490 wm5): go into file explorer, and enable view all file in the menu tab, then go into windows directory and find btcoreif file, rename it or delete it, then reboot your pda. and voila! problem solved, sound works fine

Go to \Windows\StartUp and delete the offensive program.

I have the same problem with my hp ipaq voice messenger 500 series wants to format my storage card on start up.

The ipaq is not playing large files. It only makes a small beep sound if the wav file is big. I am using a wav file of less than 800 k and it works.

This was a fun project. Here's how I did it. You'll need to download a freeware audio editor named Audacity. I did this on a Mac, but it's cross-platform, and I'm assuming the menus are the same for Windows. http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ Then. (1) Copy .pwi (Note) file to PC (2) Open Audacity (3) Get the Note audio into Audacity by: Project menu Import as raw data (4) Select all of the audio by clicking below its file name at left of the graphic of the file (5) Click on dropdown menu (arrow next to file name) Set Rate to 11025 Hz (6) Convert to WAV by: File menu Export as wav
