Best Answer

To connect a Garmin eTrex to a computer you may need an adaptor which then allows you to connect the Garmin to computer via serial to usb. Though, this is not the only way, it is highly recommended if you have a more modern computer that no longer or is unable to support Garmin compatibility. These adapters can be found on amazon. The rest is self explanatory.
