from the splash screens when they start should tell you the program running the maps.
google "Packard Bell Compasseo " and the model number, read what software it's running and then you will know what format it uses ,then convert to that and add to your map file.
simples

Thanks, my Packard Bell Compasseo 600 is running 'Destinator' software, but don't mention a 'File' type anywhere, nor on PB site ?
