I'm not familiar with all of Garmin's firmware updates. I do not know what this G Chip choice is. If you don't want it, don't install it. I would not be terribly concerned with it, though. I have yet to hear of a firmware update which ruined a GPS.
Chipset "G" is an update of the GPS firmware for the SiRFstarIII receiver in the flip up antenna. I would update the firmware because it has updates to help improve satellite acquisition.
My 7" chinese gps runs wince 4.2 net and when I go to gps menu, there
is no gps time, so I cannot syncronize with gps time. Time should be
set via the device menu and auto time correction and auto time zone has
to be unchecked in igo8 menu. I'm using 480x234 resolution. When I
check auto time correction, local time changes randomly and sometimes
very quickly and what is strange, not only the hours, but minutes also
change.

I put in a verbatim, and Sandisk 1gb sd card and load the maps via mapsource on it. Then, when I ask "where to", the gps just shuts itself down. I formated the card without any luck. As soon as I put back the 512mb sd card, the problem is over. What can I do, i have the latest firmware. v 5.10 on the gps Kind regards Jan

The GPS will power up, load maps, gets to 'Warning" screen, then shuts down. Unit will not load to the menu area, only loads as described. Tried the reset button to no avail.

I have a Garmin Nuvi 660 with a 4GB SD card loaded with hundreds of MP3 songs. However, the unit only recognize 510 songs. The mp3 player showed ## / 510 (## of 510 song is currently playing). ## changed when song changed. But the "510" never changed o matter how many more songs I put on the SD card. I browsed ALL songs and there were only 123 pages of titles. 4 titles a page, that's about 492 songs only. I'm sure I have more than 510 songs on the SD Card. Does anyone have the same problem?
