Hi Everyone,

I am new to this section...i have global sat BT 338 bluetooth GPS receiver.....and my pc has win Xp...I have downloaded garmin mobile pc 5.00.60 version....and i have downloaded India map named as gmapsupp.img which has both asia and australia maps. The thing is when i start my Garmin pc it receives the gps signal it shows my position but when search for maps in map set it doesn't shows any map.. I have copied that downloaded file gmapsupp.img(above 400 mb) in to the installed folder ie c:/GarminMobilePC....

PLEASE TEACH THE CORRECT WAY FOR USING THIS GARMIN PC SOFTWARE...I NEED STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTION.

And I have downloaded mapsource 6.13.7 ...also ..when installing it asks for previous version...

I am really confused...Hope you will Help me out .

Thanks and regards,
Karthik.

I Live in INDIA and my city is Chennai.

Welcome to the forum, Karthik.

Are the India and Australia maps locked?

To install a MapSource update without having a previous version installed, read this discussion that is posted in the http://www.laptopgpsworld.com/711-garmin-mobile-pc-faq

Start by downloading a basemap so you can figure out where you are. I think this one will work.
