  1. Well the card utility menu idea was a bust so I guess I'm back to the drawing board on this issue. Thanks for the suggestions though....
  2. Ahhh....I think we have a winner! I will try that when I get home tonight. Didn't realize that you could switch. I bet the other regions are there if I go in to the card utilities menu. Thanks!!! Hawkfan
  3. The directions say regions can be up to 64 meg. Is there some reason you are suggesting smaller sizes? 16 meg isn't going to be very big regions even by midwestern state standards. Curious where you are getting this idea from... Hawkfan
  4. Thanks for the advice but that isn't the problem. The image files were named uniquely and were short names (ie. MO.img, MN.img, IA.img). Hawkfan
  5. I recently purchased the Direct Route software from Mapsend for my Magellan Platinum version. I upgraded the gps software to the latest version 5.2 which was a requirement to use this new street route plotting software. I did manage to upload my local region (Iowa) to my 128 meg SD card through a USB reader but I've been having a lot of trouble with the software bombing out halfway through the map creation process. The problem isn't because I'm trying to create a region larger than 64 meg by the way. Since I was having so much trouble with it, I decided rather than go straight to the SD card from the program, I would create several regions and save the image files to my hard drive. This worked pretty well....or so I thought. I created an image for Missouri and Minnesota and then tried to upload them to my SD card direct from my hard drive. When I finished and went to the database menu on my gps, the only region I had was Missouri. No Minnesota and Iowa disappeared. I'm getting frustrated here. Is there anyone who's had some experience with this software that could give me some tips on creating regions on my hard drive and then uploading them to an SD card successfully?? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks, Hawkfan
  6. Does anyone know of a no cd patch for the Directroute software. I have other versions of Mapsend that don't require the cd to be in the drive when I use them and this new version is annoying that way. Thanks!
