My Oregon took a dump on me....


Recommended Posts

I have been having problems with my Oregon 200 not locking onto satellites, taking a long time to acquire satellites, and bouncing like crazy under the lightest of cover. I contacted Garmin and the first thing they asked is if I have ever updated the software. I have not so they suggested I do so. I did as they said using the link they provided and afterward my unit is pretty much dead. Now it will not acquire satellites at all and all my maps including even the base maps are gone. When I go to maps there is just the indicator triangle symbol in the middle of the screen with a flashing ? over top of it. Anyone have any suggestions of something I can try before shipping it off to Garmin for warranty repair?

Thanks. I did the master reset and it seems to have fixed the satellite problem, acquiring them anyways. The maps are still messed up. I need to re-download them but there does not seem to be enough space so I have to find some. Anyone know how to delete already found caches? My manual is no help and I cannot find an option to delete them.
