Hey all -
A buddy of mine has been super duper helpful to me with getting my boat restored and up and running. To thank him, my girlfriend and I decided to help him out, and buy him a chart upgrade for his Lowrance HDS 7. I ordered it, and after the runaround that we got from the company we ordered the card from, 3 weeks later it arrived. I met him down at the dock and offered to load the charts up. Upon popping the card in, the chart data that was on there disappears. It says "Loading Charts..." and when it goes away, the screen shows the GPS Cursor, with just a white background. All of his waypoints and wreck data shows up, but its overlaid on a white background, nothing more. When I pop the card out, it restores the original chart data. Is there an import option I am missing, or a chart install button or something? No matter what the zoom is, it still shows a white background, with course and waypoint data, nothing else. It can be zoomed into 20 ft or 100nm, no difference. Any ideas?
FYI: this is the map set we bought for him. Navico: NAUTIC INSIGHT HD EAST 2013
