Close iGuidance and open it again and see if it's still set to the right port.

Too high.

You need to go into the control panel and assign the GPS to a lower com port manually.

It will then autodetect and be stored.

Hey, I am not using any program like xport or whatever, just as is. But for some reasion in the device manager it says that com ports 1-9 are "in use" And i find that very odd.

Download XPort and run it. Don't enable the service, just hit the "Reset Arbiter" button and all your unused ports will be available again.

I was able to set mine to port 7, and successfully have IG autodetect the comport. However, when resume from hibernation IG still say no GPS mouse detected.

Sorry, that was just in XPort2. You can do the same thing in XPort3 though. Select an output port, enable the service, then disable it (unless you want to keep using it ).

If you want to use an arbitrary comm port that isn't listed in the menu options, use regedit and change the value of

HKLM\Software\iNav\iGuidance\CommPort

to the desired value.
