    I have renamed appropriately as well and tried to use SD card but it doesn't do anything, even after restarting the 255w.

    Thanks for your patience and help!
    Your device does not support 3D, so your wasting your time
    Happy it sunny Thailand

    ===================================
    when .30 is read fast it looks like 3d----

    =====

    on the garmin directory of your gps probally is a gmapprom.img file about 900 mb

    move it to the compuiter to make room---or copy and delete it--

    then copy the unlocked file after you name it gmapprom.img to the garmin directory of your gps--

    mapupload or any copy will work---
    ==============================

    the sd probally worked except you needed to deselect the old map first--as you can't display two maps at the same time---that cover the same area--
    ===================
    anyone that asks a question on this forum--is far from ignorance---as this is the place to get the best maps with the support.

    I tried alsk unlock nt 2010.30 map on my nuvi 660. my 1st attemp was to remove the old gmapprom.img and reload the new gmapprom.img unlock by alsk. When I tested my garmin it shows major roads and some roads are missing also im not able to search for address or look at my map version info. What am I doing wrong? Also, I loading the gmapprom.img to the sd card and rename it to gmapsupp.img that didn't work either. Help please....

    Thanks,
