    hi mate your right it worked for me then it stops working.
    then i found out if you change the colour of the track then save, this would work
    now its not working again so it still crashes the gps when you try to save a track :mad:

    Hahaha, I thought my GPS was the problem. Bad for Garmin, I think maybe I will return this Dakota and back to my trusty and loyal Edge 305.

    I will wait any answer from Support.

    There´s the solution !!! As ussualy the technical support of Garmin are efficient.

    So you must connect the dakota to your PC then go to folder garmin and there you must delete the folder GPX.

    Disconect your Dakota restart and there´s the solution. It works in my device.
