Now I just need to go get mine and see if it works properly.
Thanks Andrew for the links. I had actually managed to find them in the end, but alas the device still does not want to work - at least not with my Windows 8 64 bit O/S. I could try with my XP machine, but to be honest, even if it works it is no use. I have been meaning to move away from that machine for a while and now everything appears to work with 8 and I won't be returning to XP just for the GPS dongle. I can just buy another that does work for a fairly small outlay.

If you do get yours working though please do let me know.

Chris
