I think your Oregon with build in memory, that's why show Garmin drive on Window Explorer.
For 60CSx which without build in memory, that's why doesn't appear the garmin drive.
Does your 60CSx was infected virus ?
Hi JohnTan,
I think my PC was infected. Everytime I plugged my GPS to the PC, I can detect a virus file. After deleting the file, another file will appear, sometimes with different names. The file appears only on the SD card. After confirming that my PC was infected, i sent it to a shop for a clean-up. Now it is fine. I do not see the file anymore. The virus is called Bloodhound Malautoit and it seemed to be triggered by the autorun file.

Basically all the questions regarding your device already answered in the User Manual. I would only expect what is the recommended setting for tracking

What antivirus do u have..seemed your antivirus not working properly..suggest using 'Internet Security Kaspersky antivirus' easy to use..and powerful..important thing it great like Jackie Chan..

*Use only original..free and pirates always gave u more problem and nothing..

Hi Bro Fauzee,
I used the AVG but so far no problem. I think it was a recent file that I used which I suspect was potentially was infected. After that, the problem started. Lesson learned.

Hold enter while powering up to enter test mode
Hold enter and page while powering up to Hard reset the unit.
After a reset
If you have to perform a full reset using one of the sequences shown above you will need to allow the unit to collect a full almanac before normal can be resumed. First a fix will need to be obtained which can take from 5 to 10 minutes of leaving your unit outdoors, stationary, with a good sky view. After the first lock you will need another 12.5 to 15 minutes to get the almanac reloaded. Check the date to insure that the information was reloaded properly. Time will be shown as UTC time since your local time offset was lost in the reset.
