When Device Manager opens, click on the + next to Ports (COM & LPT) to expand it. The Navation 168 will be listed as a u-blox 5 GPS and GALILEO receiver (or something similar) followed by its COM port.

Set S&T to that COM port. Hi, Thanks for reply. I'm running Vista, build 6, 32-bit, and when using the Device Manager, one can not see the com ports. Your thumb nail is identical to my Windows XP Device Manager. Anyway when GPS is plugged in, it gives an immediate USB device not recognized.

Vista gives the opportunity to search & update the device driver & when that is done the info comes back that the GPS is current. When Streets & Trips is started it says device not recognized at com 3. The word Microsoft lights each time it connected to USB. I'M beginning to wonder if there is a problem with Vista. Some people have reported that some unusual problems with S&T under Vista can be resolved by disabling UAC. It is easy enough that it is worth trying if all else fails.
