Hi Caty,

no, it's this one:

The "HC" devices unfortunately do not have a slot, only "HCx" devices do have one.
I'm quite sure I use the newest driver, but I will try a firmware update, perhaps that helps to solve the problem.

Hi Caty,

I updated drivers and firmware but still it does not work. Obviously I have to use MapSource to upload a map. Any idea how I can import the img-file to MapSource in order to first unlock it and then put it onto my device?

Thank you very much...

IMG files must be imported directly in your device, no mapsource needed if locked look at the guide unlocking trick works on every device

Unfortunately your device has only 24mb of internal memory so really is unsuitable for for displaying .img files of this size.It would be possible to get a copy of City Navigator DVD which you could install on your PC,unlock with jetmouse then transfer a couple of map segments to your gps.I used a Gpsmap 60c which had 56mb in this way for some time b4 I got a larger unit.

Allright, I'm going to try this out. Thank you very much, navig8r!

Personally,I would use an older version of CN as I think the newer ones have a version of MapSource that does not include the unlock wizard utility and there are less Poi's so it makes the map tiles smaller.you can also make the tile smaller if you elect not to include auto routing info by unchecking the box at the bottom left hand side of the map list column when you send them to your gps.
