  • My 1000 is good again.

    I also made a change. I only use the EU maps on SD card, so I deleted the 7gb of garmin maps off the garmin internal HD. Seems to have made it faster to work.
    Been rock solid for 3 days now, since it's hissy fit the other day. But turning it on and off solved that.

  • Good news.

    Guess my issue could be fixed by removing the SD card maps but I wanted the supposedly better maps.

    I used the etrex this morning and it gives turn-by-turn which is neat but I'm not sure how I'd go following a purple line for 4000k without the beeping. I'd have to keep looking at the unit to make sure I don't miss a turn.

  • Does it beep? Sure tones aren't just turned off?

    I deleted the standard maps off teh device and use my SD card with the EU map on SD card, work fine.

  • On the etrex i find it easier using the direction arrow as opposed to the map. i.e it should always be pointing in the direction you need to go.
