Hi Judy,
did you space down to the gps folder and then hit space with dots
5-6?
do not hit enter at that point, hit space dots 5-6.
the system responds
list of folders on flash disk you can press space to then find the
sounds folder.
I assume if you go into gps you can play your sounds.
Let me know if this helps.
