Sorry for spamming, but I can't find help anywhere else.

Is there anything in the new release to help with failsafes to prevent being 
unable to charge dead batteries.  I have an IPAQ H5450 and I didn't touch it 
for a few weeks and now it is a brick.  It won't charge.  The battery has 
been fine so I don't think it is the battery.  I believe the IPAQ is so 
drained that it won't even recognize that the IPAQ is plugged in to charge 
it.  Any ideas?

John
