Problem with loading POI's

 
Tue, 03/27/2007 - 8:59am

Hopefully someone can help me. Everytime I load the red light file all my other POI's disappear from my 660. What am I doing wrong? I am storing all custom POI's on a 2g SD card. Any help would be great. Thanks

Got it

I didn't realize that everytime you added a file it erased all the previous files (not a real logical process) so I read the FAQ smile and created a folder to put all my POI's, now everything is great.

Several of us have found that there is a delay in access from the SD card as opposed to using the built in memory. This doesn't affect most POI's, but those that give alarms can be noticeably delayed. I keep my red light and speed poi's loaded internally and my other pois on the external sd card. Easy to handle, have two folders on my pc and load each one separately through poi loader.
