Posted: Mon May 31, 2010 8:50 pm
Personalize your Garmin nüvi start-up screen with the CNTC or Nissan logo.
(For instructions on how to do this on your TomTom click here.)
Save any of the images below to your computer's hard drive.
(These images are for the 4.3" wide screen nüvi)
(These images are for the 3.5" screen nüvi)
(These instructions are for a 7xx series Garmin nüvi but similar steps should work for most nüvis.)
Using the USB cable that came with your Garmin nüvi, plug the GPS unit in to your computer and copy the images to the JPEG folder on the Garmin drive.
Unmount the nüvi from the computer, unplug the USB cable and then start up your nüvi.
From the Home screen, click on the "Tools" button then click on the "Picture Viewer" button.
Click on the image you want to set as your start-up screen. It will display full screen.
Click on 'Display at power on?' in the top-left hand side of the screen to add a check to the checkbox.
(If there is no checkbox on that screen click on the "i" icon or "info" button on the toolbar)
Power the GPS unit off and then on again to see the new start-up screen load.
