GPS settings

Greetings all.

My PDA reset itself and I lost all it's settings (all the data was backed up via active sync though). Having reinstalled TomTom Navigator 3 from the CD, activated it, I can's get the GPS to get my location.

O2 XDA IIi
Powered car cradle with the TomTom wired receiver pluged in
Navigator 3

Before the reset everything was working fine. There was not problem reinstalling TomTom

On the GPS settings screen, I have a number of options:
Simulator
TomTom Navigator GPS
TomTom Wireless GPS
TomTom GPS (IPAQ Sleve)
etc

The the following:
Infrared port
COM9
COM4
Seial cable on COM1
Bluetooth...

I've tried different combinations of the TonTon's and COM's but with no result, oh, and yes, I did dick the little box.

Any help on determining the correct setting would really be appreciated.

Oh, and yes, I did try the search tool, but maybe I need a little more practice to fine tune a pertinent result.

Lawrence

Yep, disabling the infrared did the trick
