Help I have just bought a Haicom GPS 12 channel reciever with route 66, to use with my laptop for automobile Satalite Navigation. My PC keeps crashing I am told that WIn98 has no problem with this I am told that there is a prob with the way that XP and that it can misidentify any serial device that continually outputs data, which is what the NMEA0183 standard for GPS units requires them to do (once per second position update). I understand that a patch for Win2K is available but not XP HELP I would put win98 on my sony laptop but its too new and has no drivers available. I only have usb ports on my laptop so can't go to a normal com reciever any ideas
