With DeLorme USB GPS, if I'm correct, when you start installing it, it should ask you if you plan on using it only with DeLorme software, or if you need it for 3rd party software programs, too. Choose the driver for 3rd party programs.
(All this will work in the new iG4 the same as in your old iG2)
Do other mapping programs has this flaw? Like will StreetDeck take the USB GPS signal and run it without whining to high hell like iGuidance does?
And I don't have the install CD. I bought the system used. It's a Delorme product but I don't like their serial port emulator. That's why I'm wording if there's a generic one. I've searched high and low and not come up with one.
