SYMPTOMS
When you try to connect your Handheld PC (H/PC) to your desktop computer using H/PC Explorer, you may receive the following error message:

Cannot start communications with the desktop computer. Remote Networking could not start due to a critical error (Error 754). Please reconnect the H/PC. If the problem persists, restart the H/PC using the instructions provided by the manufacturer.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs when your H/PC has low program memory.



RESOLUTION
Adjust the memory settings on your H/PC. To do so, follow these steps:
 * 1) Tap the Start button, tap Settings, and then double-tap System.
 * 2) Tap the Memory tab, move the slider to the left to increase available program memory, and then tap OK.
 * 3) If there is a limited amount of memory available, you may need to reset your H/PC to free additional memory. When you reset your H/PC, any unsaved data is lost.
