I spoke too soon.  My apologies.
here are the steps I'm taking
1.  remove and reinsert compact flash card from that card holder thing.
2. hit n for navigation
3. hit o for options
4. hit enter on maps and poi folder
5.  arrow down until I hear h for hard drive
6 hit enter

this is where I hear no maps loaded. I have only occasionally heard one map loaded. I was at this step when I heard one map loaded when I wrote the previous email. I looked back at my braille display. I was told no maps loaded. I am using my pc to write emails not the bn.
Isn't their a time when I am supposed to do a reset?  I am using 3.5.
Thanks lots.
Rita
p.s. is their a way I can receive training on the gps? I live in the western part of Colorado.

Hello Rita
Try resetting the maps / poi directory (O for GPS options, cursor down once to map/poi folder) set it to your compact flash/maps drive. Now listen to what the system tells you. How many maps / poi files did it load, does that sound right? Then listen to see if it picked the same directory you choose. If no maps are found in that directory it will try to search other places looking for your maps.

Also make sure you have the GPS 4.0 maps and not previous version of the maps. The GPS 4.0 maps all end in -40 for example Arkansas-40.rmf

Hello all
I am still getting the message no maps found. I am on the correct drive. i found them this afternoon. I had to turn my unit off. Now I can't fine them. When I look at the other files I have in that folder, they all start with co for colorado. I tried look around mode. I was told no state by that name fund When I typed colorado. What am I doing wrong. Why can I find the maps at one time and not at another.
Thanks lots for your help.
