I tried to up date my 4500 advance deck with the new software 8.06.08. Save file to PC then save to SD card . I backed up my setting on the MAP SD card. Then installed the SD card with the new software 8.06.08 It did not update like it had in the past. Just went to I agree screen. I checked and still have 8.03.28-MV15. Well now I have a no map file flag with the MAP SD card installed. I must be missing something here are have some bad SD cards. I have done this three times and still no change. I will try two new SD cards and see if that will work. The map SD card has MAP DATA file AF2-V15 ( version 8 software only) .

Thanks Paul. I found the problem to be me. I was not using extract all when moving files from the PC to the SD card. I was using send to the SD card ,which doest not work. Problem solved.

How did you notice this? I have the same issue with no map since updating but when I look at the file on the SD card it looks as though it's there by the appearance of the icon, but how do you know it is actually there?
The file size on my C drive is 7.28 Mb whereas on my SD card the same file is 91.7Mb.??

I'm also noticing trouble downloading the map file from your site. I've mad three attempts and all have only partially completed before hanging and then timing out. I have excellent broadband speed here but 30 mins download time (and then terminating) seems extraordinarily long.
