Hi Guys

Please, please, help here!

I had my Quest "upgraded" by Garmin after it would no longer charge to the Nuvi 500.
When I queried if you could upload routes from Mapsource with Garmin (Cape Town) they said no problem....

Well, after putting my eight days worth of routes in Namibia together and uploaded them to the Nuvi they are a total mess!

I have uploaded the routes via Mapsource directly onto the unit memory as a .GDB and also as
.GPX file onto the SD card but both are a mess, jumping all over between waypoints Cry

What am I doing wrong?
Or as I originally thought, but was told by Garmin that I am talking nonsense the 500 cannot import routes from Mapsource like my Quest did.

Thanks for any advise in advance, I am desperate for any answers here.

Cheers

Mambat
