wow... If I read that correctly, you might have stet the record for the last person to use windows 98.

 

These newer GPS devices should just work plug and play with modern operating systems. Just attach the USB cable to the device and your computer and it'll appear as an attached drive in your explorer window. Easy beezy. That's all you really need.

Make sure that the GPS under Setup / System / Interface is set to "Garmin Serial" or "Garmin Spanner". If in spanner mode, choose yes to mass transfer mode.

 

The Garmin eTrex 20 doesn't have an interface option. Under "Setup/System/USB mode" the options are "Mass Storage" or "Garmin." Mass Storage should be selected and no driver is needed. I'm sure the eTrex 10 uses the same menu structure.

That is correct for Etrex 10,20 & 30.
