    Need help setting up Holux m-1000 with Streets and Trips 2008

     I have successfully bonded my gps with my laptop and i know its working because the small, generic program that came with my gps unit is working and giving my position just fine.

    As the setup states, In streets and trips, i click on the configure gps button and it brings me to a window that scans the ports on my computer. It successfully finds my gps unit, however when i try to start tracking, i get this error,

               "A connection cannot be made to the GPS reciever using the specified port. Make sure another program is not using that port and try again."

    I 99% positive that another program is not using that port and the port that its attempting to use is the port it found my gps on. 

    Is there someting i'm missing?

     

    Thanks in advance !

    How are you connecting it to your laptop: USB Data cable (the add-on one and not the one included in the box (charging only)) or thru Bluetooth?
