Oh please please help, I have done somthing terribly wrong and frozen my 505. I unzipped DictoLaunchX-0.85 into a folder on my desk top and then connected my reader. I then double clicked on the card folder and copy and pasted the files onto my card. I then did the same with the prs folder and copy and pasted the database file onto the root directory of my reader and over wrote the database file that was already there. I think I was not supposed to do this. I did not back up my original database file and now the only way I can start my reader is by pushing the reset button and then it come up with the menu and is frozen. I can still get into the reader via my computer as it still comes up as a removable disk but ebook library wont see the reader. Also what files should I have on the reader memory?

I am running windows XP please help
