Mappoint 2006 problem
bigtyme
Ok I am about at my wits end with this, first off I'll tell you what I'm using then the problem.
Panasonic CF-29 running XP Pro
Mappoint 2006
BU-303 GPS reciever

Ok the problem ... seems like when I'm traveling right before i get to a turn the map goes blank or the program stops responding or some other little glitch that makes me have to restart the whole program and if I haven't been paying attetion I miss a turn... I've talked to my IT guy at work and he can't seem to fix it so maybe someone here knows what to do ... oh and I know its not my computer because theres 3 guys I work with and all of them do the same thing.

Thanks for any thoughts,
Johnny

Johnny, do you by any chance use the "Create GPS trail" feature? If you do, then try to not use it. The problem will most likely go away.

No I do not use that feature, as a matter of fact I just got home from Pa. and I was trying different things on my way home. I stopped every program I could, thinking that maybe there was some kinda conflict, didn't help. Seems as long as I am somewhere that I really need the GPS it has an unexpected error but as long as I am somewhere that I know where to turn and all it works like a charm.It stopped like 12 times in a 2 mile stretch, but as soon as i got on I-95 it worked fine from Washington,DC to North Carolina.
Sorry for getting long winded ... Johnny
