    Take your 4gb SD and create folder GARMIN in it. To this folder copy garmindevice.xml file from your Nuvi. Virtual Nuvi created.
    Connect SD to computer and mydashbord and garminmapupdater will recognize it as your Nuvi.
    But 4gb will be not enough for CNE.

    Another Suggestion.

    Take a Blank USB Thumb Drive (Fat32) >= 8GB
    Copy your Whole Nuvi Drive to the Thumb Drive (including the .system hidden folder)
    Update as Normal
    Now you have all the updated files from Garmin on the USB Drive.
    Garmin will delete the files that you don't need anymore.
    Next Step is to copy back to your Nuvi.

    Advantages of this method.
    You now have an off site Backup of your Nuvi files. (In Case your computer crashes.)
    You can use this Drive with Basecamp instead of always having to plug in your Nuvi.
