Nuvi 765T - SD Card

I have a Garmin Nuvi 765T and have installed a Sandisk 8GB Pro Duo SD card but cannot see this as a drive on my computer? Has anyone had this problem or know if this card is not compatable with a Nuvi 7 serires?

Thanks for any comments.

All the best, Ian

SD card

I have a Nuvi 760. I had sent a email to garmin support asking the type and max size I could use, they responded with 4GB as the max and it could be a SD or SDHC. I can see my SD card as a drive along with the internal memory of my unit as a drive. I also have downloaded from the gramin site the USB driver for the nuvi unit, possibly the USB driver your using is not compatible with reading the SD CARD as a drive.

Hope this info helps
Richard

Thanks, my PC reads the removebale drive but doesn't pick up the SD card. Have tried a 4GB Sandisk from my camera but it doesn't read this either...??

What make of card have you been using?

Thanks for your help.

Regards, Ian

getting SD card to allow garmin to see map on it

You must create a directory on the SD card and name it garmin. ALL files go into that subdirectory or, yet another sub-directory beneath it (such as more poi files).

The map you want to put on the SD Card must be named gmapsupp.img and it must be either already unlocked, or have the gmapsupp.unl file present for the map to work. You can have only one gmapsupp.img file at a time although you can have many (map or other) files there and rename everything when you want to change one map to active state.

This should allow your unit to see the new map.

Garmin Navi 765 SD storage card

I also have a Garmin Navi 765T and use a 4 gig SD card for media. Mostly MP3 music files and 4 Gig holds quite a lot. I have a Sandisk and a Kodak which I swap for a different library. That works great for me.
Have not tried to store maps on the SD card though and with 4 Gig on board the Navi, why would you?

A great unit and very happy with the support from Garmin.

Regards,
Gordon.
