    Hi All,

    Been a awhile.......wondering if anyone has the GPS option running on the CF-29 w/ WIN 7. I get the jumping mouse when I enable the GPS. I went in to Safe Mode with Administrator enabled and cleared the MS Serial Mouse with no improvement.

    I have WIN 7 going but can't get the hotkey driver to stay.........Windows blocks it because of incompatibility.

    Oh.....I have gone through the threads but I'll admit maybe not throroughly and have not found a "good" solution.

    TIA,

    SIN

    Not listed in Device Manager........I went into the registry as Administrator and removed the serenum (which held the serial mouse) rebooted with GPS enable and NADA.........mouse all over....again.

    I also had to disable my Modem temporarily and once I got the GPS working go back and re-enable it. I had to set my COM ports manually. This was with the aftermarket GPS install, not the OEM.
