    I had the same problem . Bought a USB/serial converter and it took several
    attempts to get my Garmin 12xl to talk to the Toshiba. The problem came
    every time I connected. The mouse could not be controlled and was constantly
    clicking all over the screen. After a month or so I bought a Deluo usb mouse
    for real short monet. It works flawlessly. http://www.deluo.com/ Bob PDQ 36

    My old laptop died, so I got another, installed my chart-plotting software.
    but there is no serial port to plug in the GPS. Is it as simple as just
    connecting a USB/Serial connector?

    Thanks
    Steve

    Vienna! But there's no sailing in Vienna?

    'moderator' that is a pain. It's the content we have that is so valuable,
    the vehicle doesn't matter to me. And let me add my thanks to Stefan, eh?
