I added the speed cam POI and a couple others but now when I go to custom points my unit shuts off. It also can't connect to satilites now. I tried the reset which seemed to have worked but my unit still crashes. Is there a fix for this.

Welcome madskipper. It could be that your unit is protesting against you paying fo the latest database!!!

Almahadeus are you joking? It is suposed to take POIs with the loader. There must be some way to get it to least work. As I said it won't even pick up a satilite. I have only had the unit for a couple of days.

Have you been through the Garmin for Dummies and the FAQs and info threads? It is all there.

I had something similar on my unit. You may have a currupt POI file. Try and reload a file that you know works as this will overwrite the file.Hopefully this will solve it

In my case I couldn't even do this and my unit kept reseting everytime I tried to load new POI. It was sent back to Garmin who diagnosed a faulty transflash card and replaced it and everthing is now fine.

Thanks the problem must have been a currupt file. I couldn't rewrite on it either because my unit kept reseting. I only had the unit for a couple of days, so I should be able to possibly swap it.

The trouble is I think I will be affraid to load any POI flies to it after this experience.
