Just followed your instructions and works great now. Thanks! *note to developers* Feel free to contact me if you need beta help / feedback. FYI I also have a windows 7 machine (guess which OS I like better though :-)

Thanks for the link update. I'm not sure it matters which way 'round you do it. I've created a couple of new Windows 7 systems and then installed nRoute on them. It worked just fine without any messing about with drivers. I've also upgraded an existing Vista system that had nRoute installed on it. After the upgrade to Windows 7, nRoute continued to function happily without doing anything to the drivers. I suspect ... and this is just a guess ... that the newer USB drivers from Garmin's website simply support some of the very latest GPS receivers. If you don't have one of their very latest, it shouldn't be an issue. Or, it's possible that the new ones are certified for Windows 7 and the old ones aren't, but might work anyway. ...ken... Thanks for responding! I agree with you!! And, to comment on your theory, I think it started with using drivers from v8 which were way too old for my system. I just had the latest ones off of the website handy.

A lot of these links for downloading nRoute 2.7.6 are broken. I just downloaded it here today: http://www.gawisp.com/perry/nroute/ I just upgraded to Windows 7 and from what I've read this is essential. Also for what it's worth when I installed (upgraded to) 2.7.6 it looks like it put the older USB drivers than the ones on the Garmin website. I went back out and upgraded the drivers again and it seems like everything is working just fine. If you think I got it wrong, or could offer some constructive criticism, by all means please keep me honest and post a reply! This was the string that help get my machine straighten out and I hate to lead another reader/user astray.
