Mobility Site - View Single Post - CF GPS -> use in PCMCIA laptop slot?

Glisson · 07-08-03, 08:18 PM

I havew a Pharos IGPS-CF device and love it on my Axim. I just got a notebook and can't seem to get it to work. Pharos site says to install it as a Compaq GSM Radio card but it never gets a lock. It comes up in the new hardware as a mew-CFGPS whatever that is. A web search was of no help fow drivers. I am running Win XP Pro. I would love to get this working as it is a nice small dev ice I could use on two systems. I am not really looking forward to having to buy an eTrek and cable just to do this. ( But you know I will if I have to ) The PCMCIA adapter I am using is a Sagatek if that matters. This is the only thing that I have tried to use in it and I have been able to use the GPS in my Ax since trying it in my laptop.

Thanks for any help,

Glisson
