Hi: - You need to make sure your Poi are copied into your POI folder on the compact flash card then after loading your maps and before starting the GPS you need to go into the GPS options menu and make sure that your directory is pointing to the POIs that correspond to the maps you are using, especially if you have several States loaded on your compact flash card. All the best. - Kim Share your yesterdays, dream of tomorrow, but live for today!!
