aha

It may be that this HP pavilion I use for GPS work does not have a mouse, per-se.

I just use the finger pad on the keyboard, ....got accustomed to it.

I always boot with the little usb adapters installed, ....sometimes two of them, ...no problems yet.

You've been lucky, or maybe not connected your GPS module until after the system has booted and enumerated all the mice that it thinks are connected. The real problem is that Microsoft by default assumes that if you are a communications device gratuitously sending data then you must be a mouse!

At least you will know what the problem is if it does occur.

I am interfacing all my various GPS modules (NMEA, TSIP, TEP, UBX, etc...) to my XP machine through a virtual com port Prolific 2303 chipset/drivers (sold all over eBay for about $2.00). The Silicon Labs 2102 chipset works as well.

Not sure if this is germane to this thread, ...but I have never seen such a serial port issue you'all are describing.
