No, a CF card won't stop GPS information appearing. Some Pocket PC's use COM8 as the Bluetooth port (e.g.. iPAQ 2210), others use COM 5 (e.g. iPAQ 3800).

If you have properly followed every suggestion in this thread, and tried to fault diagnose the problem by reading and following this article and it's still not working then your GPS is faulty. Talk to the retailer you purchased it from and they should swap it out.

thanks for the tip.

i will give it a go if my friend cant sort it.
if not i will get a 2210.
