Information About USB Drivers
The USB drivers should have been automatically installed when you
installed the MapSource program that came with your GPSMAP
376C. When you initially connect the GPSMAP 376C to a USB
port, your computer might prompt you to locate the destination of
the drivers for the device. You only need to install the drivers once.
After the drivers are installed, your computer will always detect your
GPSMAP 376C when it is connected. USB drivers might be updated
periodically. You can find these updates at www.garmin.com .
