Tomtom bluetooth GPS receiver windows 7 64 bit

Hello,
So Windows 8 is about to launch, yet Windows 7 64bit still won't work with my TomTom bluetooth GPS receiver!
Surely TomTom or Microsoft could have come up with something by now!

It surely is not MS problem. Use the driver u have in compatibility mode and run it as vista or XP. Run as administrator.

Thanks for the reply, I was trying to connect it to MS Mappoint 2010 (Autoroute/Streets & Tips) but when I tried to configure it, it was always assigned to a port which did not show up in the 'scan for GPS', finally after uninstalling the drivers & re-installing, deleting the TomTom receiver & re-adding it countless times, I deleted my phones, the bluetooth driver & the TomTom device, re-installed the driver & the TomTom and it was finally assigned to a visible port
I quickly saved that configuration before it changed it's mind! :lol:
