Thanks Bernie. I had found GPS Gate but after doing a lot of searching and reading I found Garmin's Spanner software on their site that's for the Garmin 18 but seems to work so far with my 60. It creates a virtual com port, which is what I believe GPS Gate also does.

Gale, the only way I get mine to work is to use a product called
GPS GATE. I don't like it, but it works.   Bernie

I received my laptop yesterday and installed streets & trips and
the driver for my Garmin 60CSx.  I have the gps hooked up to the
computer but I can't get it configured.  When I try to configure
the gps, the streets & trips configuration box shows COM4 as the
current port. I scan to try to find the gps and it shows "No gps
device was found" for  COM4, COM5 and COM6. If I click on Start
GPS Tracking in streets & trips, it gives me this message: The
com port is available, but no signal is being received.  The gps
interface page shows it is connected.  Does anyone have any
advice? Thanks.
