+DangerJudy Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I keep getting the error, "Can't Init Com3" when trying to load caches off of my new windows laptop via gsak. How do I recitfy this... ???? Quote Link to comment
+PDOP's Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 In GSAK under the GPS setup menu select either that your interface is USB (or uncheck for serial). Quote Link to comment
+Thrak Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Yep. That's a USB unit. Com 3 is a serial port. On the main menu you click on GPS and then click on Setup and check the box for USB. NOTE: Be sure to install the Garmin USB drivers first. You MUST use their USB drivers. The built in Windows USB drivers WILL NOT WORK for your Garmin device. Quote Link to comment
