Hello
Drivers are here
GPS Aus Forum
Your problem is however not 100% clear - an incomplete zip file will not extract in the first case so based on info you have provided you couldnt have installed and incomplete driver anyway. Have a go with the file in link above and see what happens. If it doesnt work provide a bit more info on issue and we will re-assess issue.
Cheers

No worries - most common issue is identifying com port that needs to be set in OziExplorer. What error mesage are you getting OziExplorer when you start coms in moving map?

Greg, windows says it finds the driver for that software but encounters a problem whilst trying to install it but does not say what the problem is, have uninstalled and re-installed that driver a couple of times but to no avail ......any thoughts?
