Hi there,

I am just new here so be kind!

I have just got a new Dell Axim x51v from work and my boss has gone and gotten a wired GPS receiver from TomTom with Navigator 5 ( he seems to have a grudge against bluetooth!)

I can't get the PDA to find the GPS receiver( it keeps coming up 'No GPS Device').
Had a look on the TomTom website and it looks as if it may not be compatible...is this true, or have any of you geniuses out there found out away around the problem.

Thanks in advance for any help

Welcome to the forum, I am mobile at the moment so can't provide the direct link, if you use the search function and type in x51v it will find a number of threads covering GPS related issues with your device, there is one thread that used a reg edit to fix the unit and get it working - if this doesn't work or you can't find it please re-post and I will get back to you later - Mike
