Palm Desktop 6.2 crashing while editing appointments on Palm TX

Question

I have read every msg posted regarding this issue and finally had to give up and go back to Palm Desktop 4.1.1e (which by the way works fine).
I did a Clean Uninstall of Palm Desktop 6.2 and installed 4.1.1e (my Palm TX came with a Palm Desktop 4.2 CD but on that version my appointments would not show on my PC).
Then I synchronized the data back from my Palm TX to my PC and notice Hotsync error messages on all my repeat appointments (and some repeat tasks).
Below is an example:
- Palm Desktop does not admit appointments prior to 1970. The following date was moved to 1970: Franco`s Yearly Dr.'s appt, 8/31/2003, No time.
I'm posting this hoping it can be of help in resolving this issue.  Tks!
