Thanks for your help.  This Windows 7 does many strange things.  The Explorer is very unstable and some files don't like to be deleted.  I wish I had my XP Pro computer back!

Suddenly, the AZ an NV topos appeared in Mapsource.  Guess everything's allright.  One more question:  Do I have to replace all the maps in my Nuvi at the same time (like the POI's) or just install one map at a time?

I also just downloaded and installed (on my computer) the Nevada Topo map by OZ.  There are NO .idx files in the Nevada file, as I found in the Arizona file.

I've downloaded and opened it on my computer, but when I go to load it into the Nuvi (per the tutorial), it does  not show up on the Mapsource drop down list, along with the other maps I have loaded on the computer.

Using The Maps/Garmin Software / Arizona Topo Map by OZ

I downloaded the AZ topo map by OZ to my Windows 7 computer, ran it and opened Mapsource to installit on my Nuvi 550.  Mapsource would not recognize the map.  I looked in the Programs file and noticed that for every .img file, there was an .idx file (1 kb) of the same number.  Also, the .img files were marked as ".img.idx".  Where did I go wrong?!?!

Forgive my ignorance, but how do I get into Mass Storage Mode?

GPSr Units / Removing Maps

I've got a Nuvi 550.  I've installed a few maps from this site.  The Nuviis now acting funny and I want to remove these extra maps (all but the base map).  How do I go about it?

Thanks!

I've got a Nuvi 550 I'm trying to load three .exe files: two state maps and one topo overlay map.   I've tried using a current MapSource program, but the MapSource doesn't show the files in the drop down list.  Do I have to execute the files before loading into mapsource or put them in a particular file and location to get MapSource to recognize these three files?
