Hi bro zuree,

You can't use above method to transfer log, it not applicable to nuvi200/nuvi200w. Try follow below steps:
1) Connect your nuvi to PC
2) Explore your nuvi and you should found folder name log in your Garmin folder.
3) You should found a folder under the log folder. (If you have multiple track, you will have multiple folder. Folder name normally with date format and other sequences number)
4) Copy this folder to your PC.
5) Now you need a software call wNutrak v0.15 (http://www.anpo.republika.pl/files/wnutrak015.zip)
6) Download & extract it to your PC.
7) Double click & run it.
8) Select your input folder (log folder in your PC) and output folder.
9) Click on the convert button.
10) User mapsource open output file. Now you can view your track in mapsource.

Firstly, check your GPS unit and find out what is the HWID. For your Nuvi 200, as long as your HWID is either 0660 or 0834 (this also applies to other 2xx Nuvis) just apply the patch written for your HWID and your hidden tracklog feature will be made available, your firmware will be updated to v5.00 and you can forget about your old v3.40 firmware.

If your HWID is something else then I am afraid you will have to wait till a patch for your HWID is available.

Hi Bro Chee Loong,

Thanks for helping out.

This means you have successfully applied the patch. :good:

Please let us know how you did it and what was your firmware version before applying the patch.

Thanks bro Chee Loong.

After replying to bro nazri14, I jumped to the end of the thread and missed your report. :good:

It is encouraging to see so many brothers now with the capability to record tracks. Surely our MFM maps will have a lot more untracked areas added in the near future.
