I haven't found any other way into Streets' configuration. Device Mgr shows the PCMCIA/serial card on Com2, and Hyperterminal shows Com2 actively reading the GPS signal. There are no conflicts for port assignments shown in Device Mgr, either. Well, this is interesting... I just ran Streets on my desktop, with no GPS attached. Selecting Tools>GPS>Configure GPS Receiver brings up a dialog box with choices of my 4 Com ports for GPS connection (the Lib wouldn't display this box - gave error message instead). So that means that Streets on the Lib is not even seeing the Com ports at all, regardless of GPS connection. I'm not sure, this may be worse than I thought.
