Hey TC:
everything I am doing seems to be correct, blue bar does its thing etc. I am using QPST 2.7 Build 215 and yes on XP.

Because of the warning popup, I am pretty sure that I am for some reason not writing to my unit. But just in case, I have tried the GPS settings in G-maps to be either automatic or COM4, 4800 baud. My Beam connection is turned off and I have hung off my balcony by my feet. I am a ships officer, so I know gps and know that I should be getting a strong gps exposure from where I am located.

I am going to uninstall QPST 2.7, clean my registry, and try again. what I would like a bit of clarification on is exactly which drivers are installed when the phone is initally attached in diagnostic mode. I am thinking that they may be flukey so would like to reinstall them as well. In other words start right at the beginning again and see if that solves things.

and thanks again
