spyder dealers on gps (problem)

[wyliec]

Someone awhile ago sent me the spyderdealer files as a gpi file. My Garmin 765T gps crashed last week from being in the rain while it was on. It is being sent back to Garmin for out of warranty repair and I will not be receiving the same gps back. I pulled off the file called 'GARMIN' and placed it on my PC.

I looked today and found what appear to be the spyderdealers. Here's how I got to the list:

Clicked GARMIN folder
Clicked POI
Clicked oempoi.gpi

My question is: When I get the repaired gps back, how do I load the gpi file (with the spyderdealers) so that the spyder icon appears on the main page along with such things as 'Favorites', 'Home', 'Gas Stations', etc.?

If I just place the gpi file in the POI folder there will be no Spyder icon on the main page.

Thanks

If you copy the GPI file to your gps it works and the Spyder icon will appear in GO TO screen. It did on my Garmin. The Spyder vehicle is a different file and has to be copied as well.

Do I just plug my gps in and then drop the file to the icon that displays on my pc? So, I don't have to go to a specific folder and drop the gpi file in?
