Nuvi 1490 TV and no picture when you are driving.

I have this above mentioned Garmin with the television feature. It has been built the way that when vehicle speed goes over 12 km/h it will blank the TV-picture. Is there any way to avoid this feature? I think it is related to the information from GPS receiver.:confused:

Blue Water Charts

On a previous thread Sucro posted the following message to answer my question. I cannot respond on that thread for whatever reason so, I had to start a new thread. This is Sucro's message to me;

How to do this when installing new maps

I wonder if there's anyway to remove those legends when you start the GPS, I mean the one that comes with the maps.

Example: if I install some argentinian maps when I start the GPS it will show a legend under the Garmin logo, if I delete the gmappsup file it won't show anymore.

Wich tool should I use? thanks a lot.

Blue Charts

I have downloaded the US Blue Water Charts. Do these need to be unrar before unlocked? Or both? and could you explain the methodology of unlocking and placing in the correct folders please.

I'm confused

When referring to THIS thread I read two different things.

1. To place the new 2011 US Navigator file I first placed the .img file into the folder here

2. Then I read the above thread and assume you mean for the file to be placed here

Can someone enlighten me as to where (for sure) I am to place this. And how it becomes active once there.

Thanks
