Hi JoleenI don't know exactly what it is called but it is a holder where my compact flash card fits into The holder then the holder hooks in to the USB port on my bn. The braille note calls it a hard disk. I can't hook my compact flash card directly in to my unit. I know the information is their. My maps are recognized occasionally. I mean very occasionally.
I am sorry. I wasn't real clear what I meant. Rita----- Original Message ----- From: "Joleen" <cjferg@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Rita,As I read down through the messages to see what steps you had taken, something caught my attention and I wonder if it might be your problem.Quoting from your message: "1. remove and reinsert compact flash card from that card holder thing."I am thinking that the card holder thing is the PCMCIA card holder that fits into the slot at the right side of the mPower. If so, that would be the "PC Card". If this is correct, choose "PC Card" instead of "Hard Drive".HTH, Joleen----- Original Message ----- From: Charles LaPierre <charles@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: gps-talkusers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date sent: Fri, 03 Aug 2007 06:31:00 -0700 Subject: [gps-talkusers] Re: still no mapsAs a follow up to this we do offer weekly Chats which you canjoinand ask questions and get answers from.

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 using3.5.Thanks lots. Rita p.s. is their a way I can receive training on the gps?

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 foryour 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 exampleArkansas-40.rmfCharles.At 07:02 PM 8/2/2007, you wrote: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.
