    Did you try cure3 as caty said?
    Normally nuvi won't boot but let you access to mass storage mode to manage the files inside.
    Did you still got problem for mass storage?

    yes i try garmincure with this 2 .rgn
    109101000600.rgn -download from the web i dont remember
    nuvi2x5W_GCDFile-MTK__760.gcd - original download from garmin site

    with the 2 files i proceed to load in garmincure and create the cure file, then updated the device.
    when start updater see the message loader and really fast , when try to erasing, see software missing and the updater finish with and error.

    with rgn tool create a firmware with the boot.bin only and upload with updater. thats ok no errors in the updater but software missing stills

    there is no way to clear the ram? and update?
    after the flashing do i need to do something else? like hard reset?
    until now y only use combination of left upper corner pressed with turn on to enter on preboot, but i dont another combination for something else because its changed until version 5.70


    thanks

    Have you read Kunix's cure thread ? Cure is just to remove files from nuvi, then you must format and then replace files, but useless to explain it again here, read the thread and follow instructions

    Because you say that? I read the post and helped me to make a cure, but this post speaks for another hwid different from mine (HWID = 1091 S4 Board). I have also managed to put it as mass storage, but I get a file that autoruns and hangs the garmin. The file is called Boot.exe. If the antivirus deletes it is operated in part, but not let me delete the files
    As is explained in the previous post

    You use your gupdate.gcd from your nuvi and create cure FW with kunix tool and also you create original FW from your gupdate.gcd.
    Kunix cure tool is for all nuvi if you read theme you will see.

    You have virus on your PC becouse nuvi dont use boot.exe.
    First run som antivirus app and clean your PC.

    Here is cure and original FW for your nuvi:
