    Hi everyone ,

    Could someone can help me ?
    My nuvi 255 can't start after the firmware update from 7.50 to 7.60 .Message is "no detailed maps found that support routing .the nuvi cannot be used without them".

    For info :
    - internal memory is empty .
    - i use a 4gb micro SD card with map western europe NT 2012.40 unlocked .

    If it's possible , i need a step by step tutorial .
    Thanks in advance

    For start of device put your finger on "no detailed maps found that support routing .the nuvi cannot be used without them" Message and wait a little.

    But it is not fact that maps will be found.
    Garmin, how much is 30 pieces of silver for Judas today? Were they worthy for crucifix of GPSPower?

    Do you mean by 'internal memory is empty' that you have no maps on the unit? If so, try this:
    Remove sd
    Hard reset nuvi
    Put any small routable detail map in unit with the basemap
    Power down nuvi
    Replace sd
    Power up nuvi.
