| I have downloaded the files from your site using Poiloader onto my GPS. How do I get a voice alert, please? (On the file download there were no mp3 files - is that what I need?)

The Nuvi 255 will not read MP3 files.
Download WAV files for Garmin, Nokia or Navman instead of the MP3 files for Garmin and it should work.
You can download them together with POI Updates if you want to be sure the file name is exactly the same as the CSV or GPX file or it will not work, for example:
Red_Light_Camera_us.csv
Red_Light_Camera_us.bmp
Red_Light_Camera_us.wav
Cheers

You may need to download a third party software to play WAV files.

| You need to use the WAV files. I have a 250 and it works flawlessly.
