Garmin 760: DTB installed but not working

[Cypermethrin]

Hi

I am after some help and guidance concerning my Garmin nuvi 760 and use of the Pocket GPS World Speed Camera data base. This is what I have done.

I have already installed on the GPS the Cyclops camera positions from Garmin dated 4-Sept-09 (from my 3 month free tirla) and the files are sitting in the \Garmin\POI directory entitled UKCyclopsSample.gpi
I have installed correctly the POILoader as per instructions
I have downloaded the correct copy of the GPSWorld database as per instructions
I have run the POILoader and successfully installed the additional POI points on the GPS without any problems.

When I go to the Proximity Points within the Tools...System menus it shows 2 options each with check boxes aside

1) Garmin Speed Camera Database
2) Custom POI

Having options 1 above enabled works fine camera and audible warnings etc and you can turn if off too by unticking the box without a problem.

But selecting option 2 (Custom POI) has no effect and no warning visible or audible are working – even when I pass fixed camera which have been there for ages etc.

I have tried selecting option 2 both without option 1 enabled and with option 1 enabled but it makes no difference – and the speed camera icons jpg’s shown in the unzipped directory of the GPSworld database do not appear.

I have tried using the POILoader to remove all previously installed POI and started afresh – but this has had no effect at all.

Would be grateful for your counsel

Thanks

OK - I'm a fool !

Downloaded the EU database rather than the UK one !
