Hi, all. I have got a new one to replace the defective one from seller. Now it seems good. I never meet the same problem again. During the process of replacement, I contacted Garmin supports, they responsed very quickly. Also, the seller is willing to replace a new one and say sorry to me. Thank you for all of your help .

Thank you all for your warmly help. I have done all the steps you suggested except upload to firmware 3.90 (I'm not sure if I update the firmware, the warranty is still valid and seller are willing to replace a new one). Now I can see about 6-7 stars on gps and 3D mark on screen. But the problems are still exist: automatically power off, drawing and freezes, showing "loader loading" and freezes. Every time I switched to "map page", the above problems appeared. I have send mail to Garmin and now waiting. Any good way to make process faster? Call them directly (I'm a foreign visitor to U.S, my English is not as good as can talking with U.S citizen fluently )? Thank you for all of your suggestion and help. I'll let you know the result .

Hello, everyone. I'm very glad to find this thread. I’m a newbie of gps, and got garmin gpsmap 60cs yesterday, but I found many problems. would you please have a look on http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=100525 ? After adopted the suggestion by warmhearted people, I still disturbed by those problems. Now, I met new problems. I only have North american basemap. If I continually zoom in on map page, finally the screen shows "drawing", the pointer shows busy and then freeze. No button is valid except turn it off. Would you help me to see if there are some problems with my gps? What need to do then? Thank you very much!

I’m a newbie of gps, and got garmin gpsmap 60cs yesterday, but I found many problems. For example, I turn on the gps then change to map page, the screen shows “drawing” and stopped, not shut down (happened about 3 times). No button press or release is valid except turn it off. Also, when I doing some operation, the screen shows “load loading” and stopped. So I had to turn it off again (happened for two times). At last, it stopped at random (especially when drawing); the only way is turn it off… Anyone met the same problems with me? Or I did invalid operation? My software version is 3.80.

Thank you for your reply. The website did not say anything about rebate. As far as I know, the rebate is offered by garmin, not seller. So maybe I can get 76cs at cost of $419-$50=$369. Am I right?

Worth buying? How about newegg.com? Is it a saft place to buy things online? Thank you
