I have bought this USB GPS Receiver (http://www.cartft.com/catalog/il/650) but when I hook it to my carputer it starts moving my mouse cursor around and I can't control my mouse cursor till I unplug this hardware.
I have installed the driver and the device is working fine.
Original Message - [06/29/2009] I had the same problem, but after deactivating the Ballpoint driver Windows may use another driver (happend here). A better solution is to change the Ballpoint driver to one that will do a correct check - e.g. a Logitech serial mouse - which then stop the installation and the USB->serial driver can be loaded (you can change it in the hardwaremanager - ignore errors, when slecting another driver).
But the best way was for me to change the USB->serial driver which will fix this problem (if you have a PL-20xx driver):
