Mysteriously disconnecting...

Around twelve hours ago my iPAQ mysteriously, out of the blue,
disconnected. I go to File, Get Connected with no luck. If I remove
the device from the cradle and re-cradle it, it will connect for a few
minutes and disconnect for no obvious reason. Any ideas what could be
causing this? I am using ActiveSync 3.7 with Outlook 2002.

Thanks for any assistance,
GeoK

Here is an update with a few more details. Now my iPAQ rarely connects
on the first attempt, but I have found a strange way around it. Before
cradling I open Windows Media Player 11. A message pops up that says
"Your device is using an outdated driver that is no longer supported by
Windows Media Player." Activesync stays connected until I close that
pop up.

Also looking through some log files I came across the following error.
Is this a USB connection problem? I have tried plugging the cradle into
different USB port with same results.

Event Type: Error
Event Source: wceusbsh
Event Category: None
Event ID: 45
Date: 12/6/2007
Time: 1:27:34 PM
User: N/A
Computer: MINE
Description:
The driver detected a hardware failure on device \Device\WCEUSBSH001 and
will disable this device.

I have been Googling (<-?) this for a while. I come across reports of
the same problem, but can not seem to find any solutions.

Is there any more information needed to help resolve this problem?

Am I overlooking something that should be obvious, but I still cannot see?

Is this a problem for a different messageboard? If so, a suggestion
would be nice.

Right now I have an iPAQ that hasn't been able to connect for a week. I
sure would like to get this problem resolved and chalk it up to another
lesson learned.
