My PC recognizes the nuvi. When I attach it to the Windows XP PC, the nuvi appears in my system as an F Garmin drive and the SD slot as G Garmin drive if there is an SD in the slot or not.
I am at work now so I can't use the boss's computer for downlowding, formatting, etc. but I previously formatted the nuvi with RMPrepUSB with these settings: Max/GARMIN/Set part as non bootable/MS DOS Bootable/Boot as FDD/Fat 32. I did the same thing to my SD card as well. After I used GarminCure3 and formatted my nuvi, I have never again been able to get the PC to recognize it as a Garmin. In the Hardware System Manager or whatever it is called, the nuvi appeared as a Garmin device prior tot GarminCure3 (when I could get the computer to recognize it at all - I was having firmware issues prior to all of this, obviously). Now it appears as a secondary device or something (I can't remember specifcally).
I've made multiple attempts at holding the power button while simultaneously pressing the upper left corner of the screen and plugging in the USB cable (it would be easier if I had a third hand). But it seems like the nuvi is not recognizing the pre-boot attempts.

Have you dragged original .rgn in updater.exe ? Try this: shutdown Nuvi, attach it USB, it will start by itself and you wont have to press ON button, but just immediately before it starts hold on your finger on upper left corner.I've made multiple attempts at holding the power button while simultaneously pressing the upper left corner of the screen and plugging in the USB cable (it would be easier if I had a third hand). But it seems like the nuvi is not recognizing the pre-boot attempts.
If you loaded the .rgn in Updater and ticked USB ,you'll get for some seconds you nuvi model in Updater, this is the moment to hit ok.
Try and retry, this is the only way to revive your nuvi.
You have to navigate to get to the good.
