Convert Gauss_Kroger to UTM

$

I am using ArcView 9.3.1, and trying to bring in GPS data that is in Gauss-Kruger UTM/WGS84/UTM zone 13N. There is no transformation for WGS84 to GCS-WGS1984, so I skip and continue. The result is the points are not displayed on the map. If I delete the prj file and define a projection for the data, using GCS-WGS1984, UTM zone 13N, then the points are displayed, but appear a couple meters off in the SW direction. When I try to define a custom projection for the data, I get the same result.

The input coordinate parameters are: Projection: Gauss-Kruger, Geographic coord system: WGS84, Datum: WGS84, PM: Greenwich, Linear Unit: Meter, Ang Unit: radian, false Easting: 500,000, false northing: 0, Central meridian: -105, Scale factor: 0.9996, lat of origin: 0

Without doing any programming, is there any advice as to how to use the available ArcView tools to properly project this data?

thanks,
Jeff
