1- How do I generate a full IMG to replace the old 2010.40 IMG on the device? I can't figure out how to quickly select the whole map. Hate to do it sector by sector. (Sorry if this is a really stupid question).

2- The file on the device is GMAPPROM.IMG. How does one replace it? Do I have to create a GMAPSUPP.IMG and then rename it and use Windows Explorer to move/copy it to the device?

3- There is a GMAPPPROM.UNL file on the device. Do I just leave that alone or do I need a new one?

Thanks again!
to select the whole map whithout missing any part ,keep it little and select it all, like shown here

create the gmapsupp.img , you'll find it in C:\Garmin , rename exactly like the old one, connect your device and replace it --it's better you backup the old one on your pc before replacing it- The GMAPPPROM.UNL file is the old map GMAPPPROM.UNL file,backup it with the old map too and you wont need it with the new one coz it's unlocked-
