First you need a USB to serial adapter. I use the Keyspan USA-19Qi
You also need GPS Connect

1. Unzip PQ.
2. Open GPS Connect (I use version 0.2)
3. Import (file).GPX
4. GPS action "connect"
5. (On GPS, delete old waypoints so you get a 'fresh' copy of the info)
6. Select All (waypoints)
7. Upload waypoints
It's been a while since I've used this as I have a Garmin 60Csx and I can't use this setup with it, but should be good with your Vista. If it doesn't work, give me a shout and I can walk you through it.
Wow . . . complicated (well anything more than five steps for me and my simple mind is complicated ) . . . this is almost like using a Magellan!
