I am familiar with the update procedure Video posted on the Lowrance website, and have used it to update my unit once before - but the 4.0 will not upload to my HDS 5 Nautic Insight.

I downloaded the 4.0 software onto 2 separate SD Cards and tried both of them - no luck. Then I took both of the cards to Westmarine and tried doing the upload on 2 of their display units - still no luck.
-None of the units I tried would display the prompts and walk me through the upload as it has done in the past.

I'm wondering if Lowrance has a bad download posted on their website.

Any ideas what is happening ?

Billy, are u sure NOTHING is on the sd card first?
and the files are uncompressed ( 3)?

i have the hds nautic insight and it went A-ok.

good luck!!
