Hi all,

I have a HP Netbook running Windows 7 Starter (32bit), with 3 USB ports and am trying to get it to talk to my Magellan MAP330 GPS unit via the Belkin USB/Serial adapter I have. I have tried several setting including changing the baud rates to changing the assigned comm ports without any success. I tried using Oziexplorer and EasyGPS to talk to it but it just will not recognise it.

I tried the exact same setup ie. Belkin USB/Serial adapter and the GPS on my HP Laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium (64bit) and it works perfectly.

Is there something in the Windows starter system that prevents me from being able to run it?
