    Default Garmin for chinese GPS?

    I'm a little bit green when it comes to GPS's anyway got a older chinese gps, unsure as to what winCE its running, i'm thinking more than likely 5, anyway is it possible to run Garmin software on it? as I have Garmin TOPO Australia & New Zealand v4 Unlocked, I am only wanting to use this GPS for offroad, ive tried oziexplorer with Hema maps, but I just cant get my head around it all, can anyone offer advice and recommended software to install, and how to find out what winCE this unit would be using

    Hi Rick, this is out of my knowledge base, one of our other members that monitor the Garmin forum may be able to help.

    You might find that the answer to your question is in the GPS general forum, lots of Chinese WinCe base threads.
    Cheers, Tiny

    I did anticipate your reply , yea scoured the site, but just couldnt get the answers, I could ask google, but thought forum participation is more important and will google as a last resort

    its all here some where
    There is a thread with a menu program that allows multiple GPS and apps to run from it
    I still have my Chinese GPS here somewhere with igo, Garmin, ozi and TomTom on it
    If you can't find it I will send it to you tomorrow after work

    @Rick
    If you only want to run Garmin XT on it, look elsewhere . Post #96 has valid links.
