Ok, then.
Now I can open the map in Basecamp but can't transfer to the unit!
When I go to MappInstall it says that the device already has the last updated maps and it doesn't let me select the Europe NT 2014.40 only the other map I have in the Garmin\Maps\ directory.
And yes, I'm pretty sure I don't have Europe NT 2014.40 on the device yet.

c:\ProgramData\Garmin\Maps is the correct folder.
Then you will be able to send the map to the unit.The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.

This path is where Mapupdater sends gmap folder installing maps. Originally Posted by dasilvarsa

MapUpdater gives us the option to install map to a PC folder of our choice if it doesn't find any other MapSource product installed but we can change the path even after installation. If we change the default folder during installation MapUpdater creates a shortcut into C:\ProgramData\Garmin\Maps so MapSource or BaseCamp can find .gmap folder to it's new path. If MapUpdater can do that why can't we ?
First two shortcuts have been made during installation, the third one by me and i just moved the folder to the path i wanted.

If you insist on loading to the internal memory [less safe, chance of bricking if the image is corrupt] use MapInstall to load a smaller area of EU directly to the unit or on a 2GB card, or look for a suitable ready compile image in the thread.
