On your computer create a folder called my poi.
Put poi loader in that folder , also put any poi files you want to load into your gps.
Open the folder, connect gps and double click on poi loader.
Follow download instructions to gps.
You have two choces: express and manual.
In manual you can set alerts.
When done disconnect gps.
On gps look under where to wrench, extras.
Select extras and there yo will find your custom pois.

When you downloaded the POI's they may have gone into your "Download" folder.
Create a new folder called MyPOI
>Copy all the downloaded POI files into this folder MyPOI

Then when you open POI Loader the folder it is asking for is where your POI files are located.

Use the browse button to find MyPOI and then click next and your on your way
