Hi,

I'm new to this...I have downloaded Garmin's POI downloader, which appears to run OK, except when it starts to try to find files that I know exist on my computer...it simply doesn't recognise downloads I have done from this site. Any tips?

I be very grateful for any help!

Here is the process for custom pois http://www.poi-factory.com/node/25721 .When you run poiloader you should get message so many pois have been loaded at the end.

Edit:Note the c340 will not use wav files or mp3 for voice alerts.So dis-regard that information listed in the custom poi instructions.
