DeLorme Street Atlas 2009 w/GPS crashes my Levono R61i when on external power

I am trying to run DeLorme Street Atlas 2009 on a Levono R61i. It is a 1.83ghz Core 2 Duo, 2 ghz of ram, Windows XPPRO service pack 2. I have a USGLOBALSAT MR-350 GPS modual. I can run the GPS all day with the GPS info tool provided by USGLOBALSAT. I can run the GPS with DeLorme on battery power until the battery dies. When I run the GPS with Delorme and plug in the external power the system gives me a Blue Screen of Death and re-boots. This will happen in about 1 hour of opperation. Anyone know what is going on? Thanks, OTR

Hi OTR. When you say you can run your setup with the GPS info tool all day long w/out issues, did you mean with or w/out external power source?

I ran the GPS for over 18 hours without a crash with an external power supply. I was using the inverter power from my truck. The same power sorce that crashes the Delorme when I run the GPS with thier mapping program. OTR

See the following related thread where a crash in Streets & Trips is traced back to a faulty GPS unit. Ironically, in that case S&T crashed and Delorme didn't, but of course different software will fail in different ways. Microsoft Streets and Trips crashes unpredictably.

Can you lookup the message that was written to the event log when your computer BSOD'd? Start, Run, "eventvwr.msc", then select System and find a red icon that corresponds to a system crash. In fact, you can find several crashes since it keeps the logs around for a while. Copy-paste the text block, and perhaps copy the minidump file too.
