Downloading POIs to Garmin i3

Problem is I can't. I start the downloader, find the file with the POIs in, then click next and the window just shuts.

I've reloaded the POI software & the POI files, but it still doesn't make any difference.

I've upgraded the software from 2.6 to 2.9 but it still doesn't make any difference.

Any ideas

What software exactly?

Thanks for the reply.

The unit software was the Garmin Streetpiloti3_290.exe

The POI was from www.garmin.com/software/POILoader_20.exe

THe speedcameras were from www.pocketgpsworld.com/modules.php?name=Cameras & I chose the 23 file version.

Also tried http://www.MaFt.co.uk/garmin/download.htm

So POI Loader is the program that just closes?

Thanks.

Yes it's the POI loader. I'd expect clicking on "Next" to either open up a window saying Load, or for a new window to pop up the normal loading bars. The i3 unit doesn't seem to flash or make any sign it's received any info, so I don't think the download even starts. Sorry I wasn't clear.

I tried another computer & every thing worked fine. I'll try unisnstalling everything & starting again when I next update. The i3_290 updated software seemed to be ok after traffic light cameras & in Navigate mode. so hope it's all sorted, although it did crash yesterday when i turned the engine on & would only reset after taking out the batteries.
