    Sorry, I'd like to try to convert my 510 to 220 and I know that is a annoying question but, where I can find the original firmware of Nuvi 510 and Zumo 220? I'm a newby and there are a lot of post regarding "firmware".
    Thanks

    Now the Garmin won't see any maps.

    Any suggestion?

    Wow thx.. quick reply.. I now can create te folder but the Nuvi still load any maps..
    Should the .System be place into the root or Garmin folder?

    Changed the file name from gmapsupp.img to gmapprom.img and now it works....

    Obviously in the root as it's clearly written as similar to "[Drive letter]:\.System".

    Change "G:" to the drive letter in use for your memory card or USB mass storage device.

    I have a hugh problem:
    I updated my 510 to a 220 and everything worked fine (thanks!!). Afterthat I updated my map and the updater wanted to update the device software. I clicked yes, but realising I would lose the 220 firmware I quickly deconnected the device and the removed the battery. Now when I to start the device I get a message 'loader loading....' and can't get any further. So I need to remove the update file form the device but when I connect the device to a pc it won't recognize it. Can anyone help me?

    (sorry if my English ain't that good, it's not my native language)

    If you can still get pre_boot mode maybe you could try this.
    I'm not sure if it's been tested with 510.

    That is the problem. I can get into pre_boot (touching the screen left top and pressing the power button) then the screen gets white and there are 2 lines, a dot and instructions to press the dot. After that the device goes to Loader Loading again....
