    Helix freeze up !!!

    Hello, I have a Helix 15 Chirp Mega SI + Gps GN4. I am on software 2.440 . I am trying to update to 2.760 . When I hit restore defaults and then put the card in the unit it just freezes it up . I have tried both card slots , same result .

    What am I doing wrong ?

    Thanks, RJ

    Did you format the SD CARD before you moved the update on to it
