    ok, I moved it outside of the car and it worked, I guess the windshield was blocking signal or something.

    What I want to do now is permanently install the GPS reciever on the outside of my car, perferably on the roof by the rear windshield where you normally see satilite radio recievers on cars, buti'll make a new topic about that if i don't find it in search.

    Your GPS is VERY close to your LCD. Did you also see if lowering the refresh rate would fix it? I had no signals as well as soon as I changed the refresh I got 9 sats.

    My GPS is located under the dash up front behind the speedo cluster.

    Good to hear you got it working. The position of your GPS receiver is critical.

    Not the refresh rate since it is working now when outside of his car. the 303 is supposed to be at 4800 and that is what GPSInformation and Iguidance load up with as default.

    I did, that's the first thing i tried. Right now it is set at 60hz, if i change it at all i can't use the screen. 72hz says that the scren is unable to perform and lower it is very jumpy.

    But by the end of the weekend i plan to have tis mounted on the top of my trunk.

    Well I gave him 3 things to try, one of em worked

    I was speaking of the refresh rate of the screen, not the bps of the com port. But I do not expect a monkey to understand that

    How the heck a monkey can be such as great coder is hard to understand.
