Garmin USB slow transfer?

wickedsprint · 05-28-2005, 08:30 AM

Maybe one of you guys or gals can help me out, my 96C (same case as the 76C) takes forever to load mapsets via USB, tried two different cables and 3 different usb ports. I remember my last gps being a bit quicker. For example, to load 118mb is taking about 22 minutes and 56mb is taking 10 minutes, I seem to remember times about half that. The computer is about 3-4 years old, but I thought USB was supposed to have more than a 12X speed advantage over serial, or am I wrong?
