Help with POI loader

shark1959 · 08-25-2007, 12:17 PM

Hello All;

I'm new to this wonderful world of GPS. I've loaded the most recent drivers and have down loaded and ran the Web Updater from the Garmin site with out a problem. It now has the most current drivers and firm ware 5.70 installed. I've been reading about POI's, so I thought I'd down load the POI loader from the Garmin site. I've executed the program, connected my Garmin 330 to the USB port and opened the POI loader. A window poped up labeled POI loader with these words.

"Welcome to POI loader. This progtram will retrieve points of interest (POI's) from data files and load them onto your Garmin GPS or onto to an SD card where your Garmin GPS can read it."

According to the help file that was with the down load, there should be a tab labeled "next" in step 2 to take me to the next step. Step two reads: "Open POI Loader and click Next." , but nothing else ever shows up in the window besides the wording I mentioned above. Can anyone shed some light as to what the problem might be, I can't get past step 2. Also what I might have to do, to get through all 8 steps to create my first POI?

Thanks to all for your replies in advance.

Cheers
