    Ive searched with every combination that I can think of in the forum, then on google and havent found a solution. I havent tried all the dipswitch combinations yet, and Ive tried using CSA and VZAccess Manager drivers.

    I picked up a used CF-19 MK1 with no wwan card installed running XP. I ordered a Sierra mc5725 but it hasnt come in yet. In the mean time Ive borrowed the Qualcomm wwan card from a cf-30 that I have.

    Im not able to find the correct drivers so that I can use it for wwan and gps. Am I able to use that card in a CF-19?

    Ive tried running CSA, but it cancels on me with "This program can be installed to Panasonic PC only." That makes me wonder if there is a incorrect registry file, but Im not sure where to look.

    Any thoughts?

    Looks like Ive sudo started to make it work.

    Had to update the newmisc driver in XP, then install the gobi drivers that I found buried in the CSA package. VZAccess Manager is seeing the GOBI, but doesnt seem to want to power it on. Im also registering a NMEA device in DM that I should be able to use for Google Earth or Topo.

    Any thoughts on why VZAccess Manager isnt powering on the GOBI? Also is there an application to monitor the GOBI GPS? I thought I saw a post where Panasonic may have purposefully disable GPS in the card.
