Thanks for posting this!!!!! I'm going to give it a try soon. Very simple instructions for a computer/smartphone illiterate person to use *;0)

I have tried the reset and thank you to the people who suggested this, but it has not worked and like you have uploaded the software but am in the same position as you are. I am phoning Magellan first thing Monday morning I have decided. Obviously there is a problem with our Explorist GC. Let us stay in touch. I called Magellan this morning and they want me to return the unit. Suggest calling them if you are still having problems. I also am having issues with my Magellan Explorist gc. The same thing happened several months ago and all I had to do was update the firmware to 1.6 Went geocaching with it on tuesday and it worked fine. Went to upload my fieldnotes yesterday and it wouldn't go past the startup menu. The little compass just kept spinning in circles. Figured there had to be a new firmware update (there wasn't). Have tried reupdating it anyways and still won't go past startup. So frustrating. Sounds to me like they need a newer version of the firmware if it stops working all of a sudden. Any suggestions?
