So I just cost myself 2 hours of scratching my head and searching the web...
I have a trip to Europe coming up and thought it would be useful to have CN Europe on it.
I'm not a complete n00b, I've (successfully) used my wee gadget before, copying the files I needed onto the SD...
However this time, I had to buy a new SD card because the biggest I had was 2GB - and when it simply didn't work (new maps didn't show up on the device) was when the head scratching started...
So the very simple and quick tip is - don't do what I did and dump the file in the root of your new SD card - REMEMBER the blasted naming conventions for your maps (in a directory called Garmin) and you'll save yourself a load of time...
I won't pretend I remembered by myself - here's a link to the naming conventions for those whose memories are similarly afflicted.

Hi Roger,
I have downloaded a map you have [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], but there seems to be a problem. There are just empty spaces instead of Capitals on a map (Riga, Vilnius, Tallin). Could you tell me what the problem it might be?
Thanks a lot in advance

Strange...but you've unlocked this map? And with which device Garmin? And in Basecamp,works fine?
I also test this....
Unfortunately It stayed the same, blank Capitals on a map. What I did was I downloaded map you [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] again, unlocked it with the tool you posted above.
I am also using locked map of UK and Ireland which you posted few weeks ago, I unlocked it with UNL file and it works just fine.
I probably found a cause of it.
I downloaded Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia maps from this [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and compared them with your map.
It seems you forgot to mark small areas on a map there the Capitals are. I have attached some pics.
your map
separate Estonia map
your map
separate Latvia map
your map
separate Lithuania map
Sorry if I am mistaken!
