I've never been able to update my software on our 740S and as a result, I'm missing out on what the plotter can really do; all the full benefits, especially now that we have radar too.
So I finally got a hold of Garmin support after looking at (Berta's Boy) John's identical unit and what it can do. Melissa @ Garmin sent me 4 pages of instructions on doing a "boot block update"...whatever that hell that is.
Well, after work today, I just spent an hour following their instructions to a tee. Still doesn't work. Their "solution"? Send it in for "repairs". It appears the operating system may be "corrupted" which will render the device "inoperable".
Computers will save the world!!!!! :roll: :evil:
Can you tell I'm a bit frustrated? :amgry Wonder how long this will take and how much more it will cost?
