3.5.7283.00 from 0 to 1

Close reg editor. Wait 20 seconds, soft reset.

I tried it originally with the 2.0 and it didn't work.
Then I installed 3.5 with the reg hack you mentioned and it still didn't work.

I left the 3.5 and hack in place since the consensus is that it makes the device run a little faster.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

And Yes, the realy old GPS units MADE you enter a starting location.

Then they made it where it would try to figure it out on it's own, and after a few minutes it couldn't, it would ask you to enter your aproximate location.

Now most of the units don't even have that option anymore.
