HELP Copilot Navigator 9 GPS Driver?

Efess · 08-08-2007, 07:22 PM

I bought copilot 9 a while back thinking it would be nice, but I hated the software.

Now, i'm back trying to develop for GPS, and I was thinking I could use the copilot GPS dongle instead of spending 50+ for a new one...

Figures my Install CD is busted for copilot so I can't pull the drivers off that disc. Copilot's website doesn't really help, i'm sure they don't want people using the dongle if you don't have their software anyway. ;o

Does anyone know the driver I should download to get this thing recognized by windows? I already did a lot of research, and couldn't find this info ANYWHERE. All I could find was that it's a philips antenna..

Or if someone has the install CD, could you PLEASE zip up the driver folder and Gmail it to me??

ANY help at all would be much appreciated!

How much was the software/hardware package? I believe they sell a version with a "normal" GPS receiver, which would be usable with 3rd party software - that package would I'm guessing cost around $100 or a bit more. But they also sold a package for around $50, which only included a "software GPS receiver". This I doubt very much would be easily usable with another program.
