Default OT - Garmin database updates PROBLEM SOLVED

Morgans schrieb:

Couldn't get update to run on my Windows 98 machine (166mHz) it was
time for a new one, got a 3 gHz with Windows XP works fine. Got the
obstacle database updated.


My GOd !!! How old is that thing? I didn't know there were any of
those left running. Just curious, but how much RAM did it have? 8
meg? 16?


Why shold that matter? I find it just plain crazy that 166 MHz shouldn't
be enough for a plain simple data transfer over a serial line.

But then, I've just seen that Michael wrote 166 mHz. Now this may be
marginal, agreed.
