Thread: bricked Garmin while charging on computer

Thank you both for your responses.

Was not intentional to mess them both up, and did not know you could not charge them with the usb cables supplied plugged into a hub.
On the one that keeps rebooting (the older one-255W) while play with an sd card I was able briefly to get it to show the home screen with a few icons missing and not acquiring location. Most items when I went behind the scenes still seem to be in there so I was hoping to maybe get that up and running
I do not like the newer ones - Garmin Drive 52 - that holds a charge for 1/2 hour and oyu can not charge it on a computer as many people have complained.
On the one that reboots I was able to get into the behind the scenes and most things had words and were not blanked out. I recall awhile ago putting something on an SD card--that did allow me to see the main screen but some icons were missing and it could not connect to show my position.

Was looking through Perry site that is now uploaded to archives.org, and aside from the GCD I was not sure if I needed the EXE file for my two units or if that EXE would have encompassed all I needed?
