Hi everyone,

I have an Option GTM378 Mini-PCIe module that is supposed to have integrated GPS as well as voice capabilities. However, I'm having a really hard time getting any of these to work. Since my installed firmware is "2.1.2Hd (Date: Feb 20 2007, Time: 13:00:52)", I'm suspecting that the problem is that the firmware is out of date. Can someone direct me to where I can download the latest firmware for this module as well as a flashing program to program it into the unit? I've already checked the download section here for the Option hardware and did not see anything compatible. Also, I'd like to get more up-to-date (meaning useful) software for this device as well. I've tried to install the 'option_modules' package from the download section, but it will not install (it fails with "internal error 2803. Error_Dialog").

Thanks!

PS: DC-unlock identifies this unit as "GlobeSurfer ICON 7.2" ... I'm using Vista ultimate 64-bit ... The computer this device is attached to is a Dell 1720 ... (a.k.a. Vostro 1700)

Sorry for OT
I've spent over a week looking for the drivers for this chip for 64bit. Please be so kind and let me know where can I get them. :)

Thank you.
