You'll need to attach the plotter to the computer with a cable, or buy a card reader to attach to the pc that will accept the navionics card
I don't use Navionics so can't be of much help, so maybe some others will chip in
PS typing in capitals is considered to be shouting and impolite. Also calling the people who might help you 'Geeks' is unlikely to get the response you want

I was one of the 54, I remembered downloading a plotter engine that used Navionics, couldn't remember the name of it, it worked well.
After 10 minutes I had to leave my search as I needed to nip out, thinking I will have another look again this evening. I usually will try to help on this forum, many will testify that I take time out to scan articles, type out instructions etc.
For some reason, I can't be arsed giving any more time to this one!
You complained about lack of responses. I tried to help out to best of my abilities - hardly my fault that I'm not a Navionics user - I did find a list of officially recommended software and gave some info about how you'd have to connect via wire or buy a card reader. Hardly unreasonable
The bits about capital letters are forum etiquette, and most new users are politely informed about this protocol. In many forums you'd have been asked to comply in much harsher terms. How was I to know you have a keyboard issue. If you ask a question about that, you might find me much more knowledgable than on the Navionics question.
By replying to you, I also kept the thread in sight of forum regulars who might have a much higher level of knowledge of Navionics, though Friday night is always going to be quiet for very obvious reasons, so expect to have maybe a day or two till you receive any replies, as many people will be off on their boats until Monday
Well there is always Duncan, who has posted on this thread, and has many tales to tell about fishing. And Haydn who has also posted on this thread is one of the forums great tellers of tales. and a whole bunch more besides.
Just troll through the search facility, concentrating on the Lounge and you'll find all you need to know on the subject. It's about trolling, and one person winding people up.
