Now it seems to be working just as good as my BT GPS puck  |
What version on Garmin are you using? And, are you using GPS Intermediate drivers or COM4?
If I open GPS Viewer and then open Garmin and select COM4, Garmin works great and finds the hardware. If I only open Garmin and try to select COM4, it can't find the hardware then switches to GPS Int. drivers. I never had a problem with not using COM4 in the past. I recently updated Garmin to the most recent version so that could have made a difference. -I don't care whether I use COM4 or GPS Int. drivers, it is working. Even after being off all night long. (Now the question is "For how long...?")
