Am i doing somthing wrong?Bought my i3 yestarday loaded the speed camera file(jan06) then the other poi's ie petrol stations, Mcdonalds etc etc but the speed camera function dosn't work, approched three cameras above the speed limit(slowed before going through) but no warning.

Do I have to load both at the same time from one file?
what files do I have to use from the unziped camera file?

Regards

Yes for the first question
use the .csv files with their similarly named .bmp (for icons)

Also upload all your POIs in one go. Put them all in the same folder and upload from there. The 3i deletes all custom POIs on the machine before each upload so if you're only uploading one set at a time you'll only be getting that last one once you've finished.

in which case you'll get a specific garmin download which will make it MUCH easier to get the camera's on there.
