Mark,
I was having the same problem with a new iPaq 5555 (USB, Windows Server
2003, VS2003) which I got yesterday. Prior to getting the new iPaq
everything was working fine with an older iPaq H3630. Before I setup the new
iPaq I went to the Web to get the latest version of ActiveSync (3.7.1). I
uninstalled ActiveSync 3.7 and installed ActiveSync 3.7.1. I think that was
where the problem occurred. I had it in my notes for setting up my machine
from scratch that ActiveSync should be installed before Visual Studio .NET
but I forgot about it.
Late last night I unstalled ActiveSync 3.7.1 and Visual Studio .NET 2003 and
everything related (e.g. Pocket PC 2003 SDK, SmartPhone 2003 SDK). I shut
the machine down and went to bed.
This morning I installed:
1) ActiveSync 3.7.1
2) Visual Studio .NET 2003
Problem solved for me. Now I can deploy SDE projects to the new iPaq.
Great way to start the day.
Not sure if this will solve your problem but it's something to try.
