Hey guys im fairly new to this forum.

Reason Im here is to ask for some help on seting up my gps tomtom for my ipaq 6955. Seems to me some of the people I been reading about theyrs seems to be a reg edit hack step in order to get a gps signal due to com port conflicts.

Does anyone here have a step by step instruction on how to properly get the tomtom working properly? I really dont want to edit the reg and screw up my ipaq, any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I have a UK 6910 with Tom Tom 6 installed. The GPS port settings are Com 7 at 57600 baud. I have had no problems with any of the GPS software using these settings (IGO 2006, Destinator 6, Co-Pilot 6, VisualGPSce & Memory Map 5)

Hope this helps.

Hi (newby here!!)
I'm also having the same trouble. I've recently upgraded from TT5 to TT7.450 (9028) but it can't see the internal GPS device. I've checked the registry - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/TomTom/GPSSettings and all is as previously mentioned. I've changed the 'ComPortNumber' to various other values and even 'Force' to 1 (not really sure what that did?!) :confused:
Any ideas? :confused: :confused:
Many thanks
:)
