Oregon 450T

83 Points
Since a recent Garmin Express update my garmin has had issues.
1 with the existing card it starts to boot then just fades after 10 seconds
2 without the card it boots OK
3 with a newly formatted sd card it boots OK\
4 with open streetmaps file it worked and I was able to boot
5 tried with my purchased OS map - failed as before
6 removed OS file and just left openstreetmap file failed again
Any ideas?

"Normally I would recommend upgrading through Webupdater but if for some reason you can't (e.g. you are trying to downgrade) then you can update using the following procedure:
Use the links below under "Software Version" to download the gcd file for the version you want to use
Change the name of the file you just download to gupdate.gcd
Attach the Oregon to your computer and verify that it is in USB Mass storage mode
Copy gupdate.gcd to [OR drive]:\Garmin\gupdate.gcd
Restart the Oregon"
But yeah, it's time to move on from the 450. Great device in its day, but very slow processor by current standards
