Hello Butters. I'm just about to start the Celebrations in Scotland. My computer also decided to give up, so the chances of me getting anything sorted are now are going to be postponed a bit more longer. Your news though is still encouraging and appreciated. Just my luck for my birthday being on the 13th. Kindest regards to you. By the way Im enjoying an Irish whiskey tonight, Bushmills ... it's pretty good. Take care. Rusty

Hello again Butters, hope you are well.
Ive got my comuter up and running and tried again to get the nuvi going.
Ive followed your instructions 100%.
I can get the nuvi very briefly to appear on the updater section (usb), and it shows the model number of the unit for about 3 seconds. I then press ok, there is a little pause then a window on updater says .... ' No updates available for your product'. Im dragging the rgn file onto the updater.exe directly. This is the best Ive got so far. Ive made the rgn file ok .... Do you have any other ideas please ? Many thanks.
Edit:
Hello again. I have had another attempt. Im getting the updater to briefly show the nuvi in the usb window but when I hit ok ( after dropping the rgn file directly into the updater. exe beforehand), it just says 'no updates are available for your product'. Do you have any other ideas please. Thank you.Last edited by Boki; 2nd February 2024 at 10:40 PM. Reason: merged two posts

Hi Butters, only partial luck this time. I can get the nuvi to talk with updater exe. Message says that 8.8 alreasdy installed, do you want to reinstall. I press ok, it initialises then stops at 0%. Error message says Garmin application failed, contact Garmin support. Do you have anymore advice please. Thanks.
