Press the Windows key + R. Type devmgmt.msc. Right-click the Garmin Device. If it is not clear which device is the Garmin, disconnect the Garmin device from the computer and make note of which item disappears from the list. That item should return upon reconnecting the device. Click Update Driver. The CoPilot Live package we reviewed included the GPS pod with an attached USB cable, one DVD, and instructions. The installation was simple and having both the application and mapping data on a single disc (earlier versions required two CDs) was an advantage. CoPilot will make sure you get the best price on services and help you maintain your vehicle. Is the mechanic charging too much? Do you need an oil change? Should you refinance? Is there a safety recall? CoPilot will remove the hassles of owning a car. Download the Free App.
