last week i installed tomtom7, worked like a charme

i used "other bleutooth GPS-reciever" with port COM4 and it worked

yesterday sundenly my gps didn't work anymore when i checked the setting i could not select COM4 anymore (only COM0 & COM7)
also TT tells me; no "GPS-device"

does anyone know how i can get COM4 back into the list?

integrated GPS does not work...

i fixed the problem by doing a hard reset...
i made a backup of all my personal stuff but when i restored the backup my gps didn't work anymore so did a hard reset again and installed all my apps again...

there is a lesson to be learned here --> backup on a regular bases!
