Les,

There is only one New York Points of Interest file for version 3. There 
shouldn't be any version 2 files on the CD. It says NY2004.bpi with a date 
of April 2, 2004. Put that one in your compact flash POI folder.

There are multiple maps for New York. Those go in the Maps folder. You may 
have grabbed a different New York with a a map related extension. Make sure 
all the New York maps files are in the Maps folder or they will not work 
properly.

Normally, we put the home state of the user in the maps folder and the POI 
file in the POI folder already. You shouldn't have had to load anything. 
Contact me off line if you need any more help.

Mike
