OK. Once you have the card reader and you have connected it to your PC with the USB lead it comes with, you should see, under 'My Computer', four extra devices listed. These relate to each of the four card slots on the card reader and if you double click on each in turn you will see they contain no folders or files. However if you then insert the card from the i3 into the SD adapter you already have and you slide this into the appropriate slot in the reader, now on double clicking on the appropriate device listed under 'My Computer' you will see the Garmin folder you want to backup.

Hope this helps you.

dacota, stick the card into a card reader and transfer the files to your pc...you can only copy back to the original card for the card to work....you cannot copy to a new card...
