I have an HP iPAQ Pocket PC h2200 series.

While I was trying to update the ROM, I suddenly received this error message stating

ERROR 100. This error appears when trying to change the language from Spanish to English and made me decided to update my Pocket PC to make this work. I have attached a screenshot of the said error message below.

I would greatly appreciate your help on resolving my problem.

ERROR 100: INCOMPATIBLE IMAGE

The ROM image that you are trying to use is not designed to work with your iPAQ Pocket PC.

These are the characteristics of your iPAQ pocket PC:

Model ID: hp iPaQ h2200

Image Version :1.10.07

The selected image information:

Model ID: hp iPaQ h2200

Image Version :1.10.07

If  you updated your ROM through a serial connection and your Host PC's operating system is Microsoft Windows 2000 or XP you were likely to receive a "Connection Error" during the update.

Simply, follow the on screen instructions and try again. If the problem persists, unplug your serial connection and update through a direct connection to your Host PC's USB port download  

Please, read and understand the information in the Readme file included with this update.
