3. Power ON your Nuvi but DON NOT release your finger either from Power button nor from LCD screen (keep both pressed until the procedure ends)
4. Now quickly connect your USB cable
5. You will notice Nuvi boots in Pre-Boot mode.

Did try this, pressed LCD and power button for 5 minutes, no procedure starts (at least not visible). After 5 minutes connected USB cable but PC did not recognize nuvi.
Any other suggestion?

When you power on Nuvi (holding finger on upper left LCD corner) quickly connect USB cable to PC. Almost instantly you'll see preboot mode.
As said aekhong updater.exe must be already executed.

Downloaded updater.exe, but cannot run it. (If I try to run the exe I get the message "No update files could be found")

Updater.exe must be executed from command line with rgn file name as parameter (example UPDATER.EXE 110100010260.rgn ). Or put updater (not shortcut) on your desktop and then drop on it rgn file.
