    Holux GR-213 - Someone upload WinXP Driver?

    Got the Holux GR-213 in a package deal off mp3car's classified section, but didn't receive the driver disk, and was expecting to be able to download from holux.

    www.holux.com
    www.holux-uk.com
    and the others...aren't working

    I did try the GR-210 drivers, and they seemed to work, but it's always best to use the proper drivers for most any device.

    So if someone has them on CD, and could .zip (or any compression method), and upload them to say mediafire.com, I'd really appreciate it.

    Thanks!

    (wasn't sure if this was more appropriate under support software?)

    both my globalsat and microsoft pharos used the same driver... basically a driver that assigns the usb to a virtual com port. Scroll down here http://www.usglobalsat.com/item.asp?itemid=60

    So most likely the Holux GR-210 "driver" is the same then? I didn't bother installing it to avoid having to uninstall it. I'll check it all out now.

    Thanks ThurzNite!

    It's just a USB-to-serial driver.
    The Globalsat units (BU-353 for example) use the Prolific USB-to-serial driver.
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?



    Under normal circumstances, a signature would go here.

    I have the GM210 and GR213U both use the exact same drivers.

    From the looks of the driver disk all models use the same "USB -V2.1.0.exe" 9-3-2004 driver.

    236
    236b
    240
    210
    211
    212
    213
    213u
    230
    239

    Hope that helps.

    Looks like I'm set then, I have the 210 drivers, and they seem to pull up a signal in my basement (sorta have a half window in sight).

    Very impressed with the sirfIII after seeing that.

    Thanks everyone!

    Have to "unzip" rar. file found on Holux website

    The rar. file is like a zip file. I downloaded 7 zip @ http://files.uberdownloads.com/unrar.html which supports the rar. format and unziped the file downloaded from holux drivers page and now it works.

    It ended up being the USB -V2.1.0.exe file a few people have mentioned.
