Does this tool work using Windows Vista? Or, perhaps it is a separate tool just used on the PK? For, as I believe I mentioned earlier, I did indeed purchase another used PK when the one I was using before crashed while I was trying to use the Sendero 2010 GPS. But, seeing as I'm using Windows Vista with a computer that has no serial port and thus I knew of no way to easily bring the flash disk back, I was going to give up on this PK after I twice downloaded between fifty and one hundred email and the PK froze and required the C1 and C4 reset. I crossed my fingers and toes, grin, and the flash disk did come back, but I quickly put the PK away while I still had the working flash disk.
