How To: Configure GPS - Page 12

**briggs** · #**111** (**permalink**) 10-27-2008, 05:31 PM

I'm running vista 64 bit

the drivers for vista on this guide do not work for either of my generic serial devices. I've tried installing through wizard and device manager, so I'm stuck on like step 3....

Advice?

I tried out the Tomtom7 download with the registry entries on the first post in this thread and noticed it fudged up the gps on my Sprint Diamond. I did a hard reset and now the gps is working fine again. Is there a link to download Tomtom7 without the registry changes?

I had some trouble initially with Juicy's 2.5 because of AGPS being enabled. Since disabling it, I've had no GPS problems. You can use Advanced Config to turn it off. (I just made a cab for that and my other reg tweaks).

Is there an alternative for vista 64 bit operating systems as the provided drivers do not work?

Thanks

Ok, I'm tying to get this to work but have hit a snag. The images with the settings for the gpsOne tab are not loading. What do I need to put for PDE IP, Port, transport, and position calculation. Currently they are set to 0.0.0.0, 0, IP, and PDE. I'm using an Alltel Diamond.
