   the ROM Update files to a directory. (NOTE: This directory should not 
   contain any file or folder from any previous ROM Upgrade.) 

3. Establish an Activesync connection between the handheld and host PC using 
   the USB connection. 

4. RUU.exe will start automatically. Follow the on-screen instructions to 
   complete the ROM upgrade.
