When I hibernate with the BU-353 AND with IG3 running, it locks up the BU353 on resume. I checked it with GPSInfo (program that came with the driver disk) and the reciever is no longer detected. Plugging and unplugging would reset the reciever back to normal. Hibernating with IG3 closed, the reciever was still active after resume.

I used many many workarounds for this including using the hibernation aware program with some script .exe files to close IG3 automatically on hibernation... reinitializing the USB ports..etc, etc.

The most elegant and simple way was with XPORT as mentioned before. I guess since it redistributes the signal, IG3 doesnt have a direct connect with the reciever anymore...so it doesn't lock it up on hibernate.

Now I just use the XPORT program. No need for reinitialization or any kinds of extra programs to do anything. And the signal is available almost instantly in most cases.
