Hi Ben, Welcome to the forum, you need to set-up the GPS as follows:
1/ Start Memory Map on the C-III
2/ Menu/ GPS/ Setup (within the MM application)
Manufacturer = NMEA
Model (should be greyed out so ignore it)
Port = COM4
Baud = 9600
Hit OK and thats the job done, don't mess with the GPS applet in start / Settings as that can lead to further problems - hope this gets your unit working - Mike |

Got it working now.

Glad to hear that you have it working, as the C-III is a new unit you might be interested in This Post and possibly the one beneath it.
Also have a look at This review which details a different car holder for the C-III, plenty of information to be going on with - Mike |
