hi:

i updated my post---explained how to unhide the gps's .system directory--i hope that helps.

you can do a copy from .system/gmapprom.img to computer to save your old map-
then rename the new map to gmapprom.img and copy it to the .system directory.

it is not system its .system

I keep searching the forum but must not be using the correct terms.

Does anyone recall the thread/method for saving the install files while they are being D/L from Garmin ?

The latest Updated/MapInstaller gives you a choice to "save" the files, but they are not ALL the files we all want and need.

Help Please.
