Hi All,

I have purchased a Garmin Nuvi760 and have aqcuired through a friend an sd card with "Discover Aus, Outback Tourer" Hema Maps on it.

My question is how do I get these maps to work on the GPS? I have tried putting the SD card into the unit but cant seem to find the maps anywhere?

Any advice or help would be much appreciated.

Hello

The maps you speak of are for a Magellan GPS. They will not work in a Garmin. Different format

Cheers
Greg

The Explorer is on the money. Google to shonkymaps and download them, they will work on your 760 and are free and pretty good too
