Good Afternoon

I realy hope somebody can help me out on this one. Like it our not , I had to instal VPC on my G4 in order to run GPS software (Garmin). That software is only available for XP, so what you want. To upload maps with that software I need to plug a Keyspan USB-Serial adapter on my Mac ( the XP software has an USB setting but after numerous phonecalls they had to admit that there is a bug in there famous XP version :-)). That leaves me with the serial option. I installed the driver for OSX ( imediatly recognised), then I also installed it on XP running from VPC (6.0)...not found ??
So , question, do I have to install the driver on both systems and if it is only on XP ( I hate to ask this) how to make it recognised by XP after installing the latest software???

thx in advance
