Question XPort and BU-353 Problem

I am just trying to set up my Bu-353 gps receiver and Iguidance 4 with Xport.

I had it working the other day on another hard drive and was able to get a fixed location and everything worked, but now i cant seem to get to working.

As of right now i am getting a solid light on the gps receiver which means its on but looking for signal.

I can't seem it to find a fixed signal.

I have installed the drivers that came with the gps receiver and before i used Xport i went into device manager to see what comm port the gps is going to use. Its comm 3 in device manager.

So, then i installed xport and put the input at comm3 and output as comm4.

WHen i open GPSInfo, it sees the gps on comm4 and outputs information, but the light on the receiver still doesn't blink and can't get fixed location.

I have also made sure the baud rate is set to 4800 in xport, device manager for com3 and in GPSInfo

Here is the output from GPSInfo.exe:
