If you go to the Delorme website, you can download a serial emulator for free that will allow you to use it with MS streets. You do realize that it comes with a much better travel program that is updated to 2013?

I'm sorry. I cannot answer that as I have no knowledge of it. However, I can tell you that with Street Atlas there was a problem created with Windows 8/8.1 that appears to be related to a Windows update somehow. I don't have the particulars on that, but I do have some info. Yes, there is a fix. The problem occurs shortly after cranking up the GPS BU 353 s4 Antenna. Windows will eventually experience a Blue Screen of Death, go into an automatic reboot, and be just fine until you try to use that BU 353 s4 again. This same problem occurs with Windows Vista using the original BU 353. I'm told it also occurs with Windows 7, but I have no first hand knowledge of it. Anyway, there is a fix on the Delorme website for this. ****IMPORTANT***** Be sure that the BU 353 s4 GPS antenna is plugged in and nothing else when you go through the fix. The webpage for Delorme on this matter is titled "Troubleshooting the GlobalSat BU-353 GPS Receiver". If you do find a problem as described above with Windows 8 MS Street & Trips 2009 I'd suggest looking to see if that same fix applies and if it's not mentioned then give Delorme a call. They answer their phone M-F, 09:00 to 17:00 Eastern time. Another symptom is while the tracking is working and you're driving along all of a sudden you glance over at the screen only to find out you just drove the last ten miles of a 20 mile trip and you still have twenty miles to go. In other words, the antenna is working, but the tracking has frozen.

Works perfectly with Win7. The change log for the drivers on the TrackIR site indicates they added Win8 support in October of 2012. I've never personally tried to run it on Win8, but it's a very simple USB device, so I can't imagine it wouldn't work.

I talk to etekcity directly and they said it does work for windows 8 but not windows 8.1 or higher. If you like my response please follow TwistedSaiyan on twitter and like us on facebook and subscribe to us on YouTube because we are apart of a special beta test program with Etekcity.

The default driver in w8 will work just as in w7 but Microsoft suggests still downloading the specific driver but as of right now there is no such driver yet. In short yes.

Doubtful, I almost crashed 2 Windows 8 computers trying to install the drivers. I received a refund and the seller did not want the unit back so I threw it away.

I am using Windows 8.1 and it works well for me. I did not need to download any drivers, just set things up to automatically detect connection. I have a Garmin emap, so I had to cut off the plastic tab that projects from the cable to get it to fit my GPS.

All I can tell you is that I haven't used Microsoft strrets and trips with anything else. I use is as it was packaged and it works every time. After you find your destination(s) the program works although you loose a sat. connection, as with GPS, and you can continue to follow the route. Why do you need another program IF you have streets and trips? also if you already have streets and trips, microsoft will answer that question for you for free.

According to Kingston's website, this Data Traveler Locker +G2 works on Windows 8, but not on Windows 8 RT.

I use it with Windows 7 64-bit and Microsoft Streets & Trips 2013 with no problem at all. The GPS located most often within 5 seconds once started.Just install the software that comes with the GPS receiver and set it up in Microsoft Streets & Trips and you're good to go.

I just noticed if you read the older Q&A; on this GPS, Other people are using it with MS Streets, so I can say yes, it will work.

yes.. that is why I had bought the item for my old pc... I had a new version of Microsoft trips and it came on a dvd and I needed this hardware to install it. I only had a cd drive on my old pc.
