Probably a good place to start is by only loading the basic Palm databases.
You can do this by emptying your backup file, hard resetting the palm then
hotsync.
If your username is Joe Bloggs, you copy the contents of C:\Program
Files\Palm\BloggsJ\Backup to a safe place then delete the contents of that
file. That removes all 3rd party applications and databases. Hard reset your
Vx and hotsync. You should then have only the basic PIM databases. You can
then start to reload the 3rd party apps & databases by copying files from
your saved backup file into your new backup file. You can then spot which
apps are giving problems.
If, when you do this, the basis Palm PIMs are crashing your Vx, (I am
guessing), you will probably need to use the File>Export command in your
palm desktop app to export the databases, wipe all your Palm data then
import the data back in. I think this is because in OS5, the basic PIM apps
have been altered eg. Datebook has become Calendar, ToDo has become Tasks
etc.
Hope this makes sense.

PS It is a very good idea to make a copy of C:\Program Files\Palm\BloggsJ to
a safe place before you start. That way, if you mess up, you can start
again.
