|
|
Hi
Updated my Oregon for the first time last night from 2.4 something to 2.8 and now all the roads are gone.
Don't use it for driving but the local area does look totally different when you take all the roads out!
Advice appreciated _________________ Garmin Oregon 400T

You have to reset all the options after a firmware update.
Setup-Map-Map information-Select Map.
See what is 'Enable' or 'Disable' _________________ Garmin Oregon 300 + Garmin iQue 3600

What is the size of each map file?
Are they in the unit or on the micro card? _________________ Garmin Oregon 300 + Garmin iQue 3600

The US topo is on a micro sd card - the European ones came within the unit - how do you check the file size? _________________ Garmin Oregon 400T

plug up to PC and the unit becomes a drive.
How did you upgrade to 2.8?
The most recent upgrade is 2.86 which gives problems.
I have 2.85.
Setup- 'About'

Plugged into my pc, opened up the Garmin 'WebUpdater' software and followed the 'update software' wizard.
My version is showing 2.80 Should I try updating again? _________________ Garmin Oregon 400T

Thanx for the link -
WOW - didn't realise it was the public sorting out Garmins' software for them!
Tried installing version 2.85 as explained. Not sure what opening in mass storage mode means so just copied the renamed file into Garmin (G drive for me) and it's not doing anything there (still version 2.80)
Tried just re-installing version 2.80 but no change there either - only other options appear to be install the latest beta (2.86) or return the unit for a refund! _________________ Garmin Oregon 400T

Quick update
Spoke to Garmin UK this morning - they'd never come across this problem so explained how to do a factory reset - got my roads back! _________________ Garmin Oregon 400T
