Reply With QuoteI have use my earthmate with MS S&T 2005 (serial mode), as well as Street Atlas 2005 (USB mode). I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use it in two different modes, so long as you're not using it in two different modes simltaneously..
So in playing with my Earthmate USB device to get it working with IGuidance (installing the drivers where it tricks the computer into thinking it's a serial device) I found software that came with the download that's GPS testing stuff from Delorme.
It gives a little digital compass, gives you a little window for your current speed, tells you where the sun should be, etc etc etc...
But it's looking for the device ot be a USB. It all worked perfectly until I installed the Serial - USB driver. Now it doesn't recognize it.
Can I correct this in anyway? It's a fun little program that'd be nice to have in addition to guidance.
(Hopefully someone knows the program I'm talking about. I can't think of the name of it)

Hey it's not my fault that my brain thinks outside the realm of existin gtechnology. Maybe if the help desk guys caught the hardware up to speed I wouldn't have ot do so much 'advanced thinking'Its this line of thinking that makes Helpdesk guys grin
Yeah, you're right. Most helpdesk guys wouldn't be able to answer that anyway!Hey it's not my fault that my brain thinks outside the realm of existin gtechnology. Maybe if the help desk guys caught the hardware up to speed I wouldn't have ot do so much 'advanced thinking'
