Hi,

If the manuals and all are on the compact flash card and you wish to store them 
elsewhere, you could certainly free up space on the cf card by deleting 
them from there afterwards.  

Since I don't know what was placed on your cf card before it shipped to you, 
it's hard to suggest what to delete, but if you try copying from the cd to the 
cf 
card and are told the files already exist and do you want to replace them or 
not, you probably need to check the file creation dates to see which set of 
files 
are older.

As for getting maps onto the cf card, I thought the maps for your area were put 
onto the cf card before shipping, but maybe not.  If not, you need to copy 
them from the cd to the card.

Theoretically, activesync could probably be used for this but if it works it 
will take a very very very long time and probably will choke somewhere along 
the 
way.

If you have access to a card reader, I strongly recommend using the  card 
reader to copy directly from the cd to the card.  The maps are very large, 
depending on what state or states you want to copy of course.  

If your pc or laptop doesn't have a cf slot but only a pcmcia slot, try going 
to radio shack and getting a cf to pcmcia adapter.  They cost somewhere around 
$11 I believe.  

Even copying maps to the cf card using a pc can take several minutes, but it's 
more reliable than trying to use activesync.

Hi,
Okay, good news for me. GPS is now installed! Okay thanks and the reset
worked. Now for the questions.
1. If I move the manuals and the MP3 tutorial to the Microdrive or flash
disk and delete the QT manuals and the MP3 file,  will that free up
space on the compactflash card?
2. The POI CD that came with the GPS, do I need to install it in the POI
folder? The CD that says V 3.1. There are already POI's in the POI
folder and I just didn't want to reinstall something.
4. What's the best way to get maps and POI's on the compactflash card
from the CD? Will active sink work?
5. Where do I put my own created POI's in the compactflash card?
Okay, guess that's it for now. Off to read manuals.
Thanks for the patients and help.
