Can anyone help me sort out a problem?
I put in a route on the PC transfer it to GPS then start the run, problem begins, when the route gets to the first waypoint, it stops and won't go any further.
Question, How do I get the GPS to run continuously from start to finish?

Alan

There's your problem, the map software your using.

I use the Garmin Mapsource software, if you bought your GPS with lifetime Map Update , then each time an update is performed the mapping software can be also be installed to the computer at the same time.
