    Hello. I have a new Vaio Z 1390X with the Gobi 2000 GPS card. Everytime I activate Location Services via the SmartWi utility, and I leave that toggle to ON, and try to put the computer to Sleep, it won't ever go into sleep mode unless that switch is set to off (default on reboot). So I have to remember to toggle it to off everytime I want to put the computer to sleep. Reboot and shutdown works fine though. It would just shut down incorrectly (when its supposed to be sleeping), most likely due to a BSOD. So the next time I powerup the computer, it says windows has been shut down incorrectly.

    I noticed this from the time I got it (factory install/settings).
    But just incase, does anyone have or know the correct Baud/port settings for all the (3) COM ports that the GPS modem uses in device manager? :confused:
