toshiba pocket pc e740

I have a Toshiba Pocket PC e740.  I have used it with Windows XP Pro on another machine, however on the Windows 7 I can not find a way to use it.  The Windows 7 (64 Home Premium Edition) PC is my main computer.  Active Sync will not function on this machine and the Windows Moble program doesn't recognize the PC e740 for some reason.  Any suggestions other that replacing it with a moble phone?  I kept a lot of things on the Pocket PC including Trips & Streets that worked well for me while I was a Limo Driver.  HELP!!!

The best option is to do an Anytime Upgrade to Windows 7 Professional and download the free Windows XP Mode which you can use Active Sync through.

Is the software designed for a previous version of Windows such as Windows XP? Most older programs cannot work with Windows 7, especially some programs for Windows XP, possible that you might need to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate if you are not running either edition and download the free Windows XP Mode program which will allow you run older programs:

Running Windows XP Mode requires:

1) Windows 7 - Professional, Ultimate or Enterprise (Not supported in Home Premium).
