Maybe 'someone' can consider if 1 to 1 exchange

No more already this promotion.

Locking is quite fast but I don't have a real Garmin to compare.
This is the cheape man's version of Garmin...hehehe.

Go get the updated 5530 drivers from http://usapilot.com/tmp/Dell_5530_GPS.zip

Enable Shown Hidden Devices in Device Manager
--------------------------------------------------------
If you right-click on My Computer and select properties .. Goto Advanced and select Environmental Variables.
Under System Variables, select NEW and type DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES next to variable name and 1 next to variable value and then reboot ...
----------------------------------------------------------

Update driver for each Dell Wireless 5530 xxxx device
------------------------------------------------------------
When the system comes back, right click My Computer and select properties - Select Hardware and Device Manager.

Under the View tab, select "Show hidden devices".

One by one expand each category and look for Dell Wireless 5530 XXXX devices. Each time you find one, double click it and select the driver tab.

Select "update driver" and tell it to "Install from a list or specific location (advanced)"

Select "Don't search, I will choose the driver to install" - Next

Select "Have Disk.." and browse to the the location you have expanded the zip file .. Go to the X86 directory and point to the drivers in order.

The only real must follow points are doing the USB one first, and make sure you do the unic network driver before the ndis driver.

Installed the latest Dell branded Wireless Manager, version 5.2.1045.43 and a GPS option appeared under the View menu. Download from http://supportapj.dell.com/support/downloa...0&fileid=274186

Try to select GPS On and see NMEA logs appearing on the bottom screen.

To get a lock, you need to connect on the Maxis/Celcom/Digi broadband first and quickly disconnect. My lock started after I did this. Yours may differ.
