MapPoint 2006 Windows Crash With GPS On

Win XP Pro SP2
Athlon 64 3000
MapPoint 2006
Garmin GPS12XL
Serial - USB Converter for input

When I switch the GPS on in MP2006 and attempt to configure it.. Windows Crashes. (Black Screen - Reboot)

This appears to be connected in some way to the Microsoft Serial Ballpoint - However to the best of my knowledge I do not (and never have had this installed) - furthermore there is no reference to this in the device manager.

1. Has anyone else experienced this?
2. Is this problem related to MapPoint?
2. What can I do about it?

NB: GPS worked correctly in MP2004 - but haven`t had the GPS plugged in for a while and there have been many Windows updates in between times.

Cheers
Dave
