Kunix's cure must be loaded to see nuvi's folder with nuvi attached to USB and delete problematic files who prevent nuvi to start. In this case probably a map
If you dont delete it ,cure wont do the trick.
You have to navigate to get to the good.

Remove gupdate.gcd from your nuvi.
In most case some of this file ar corrupted when nuvi stuck: gupdate.gcd, Text, Voice, Keyboards, .img and GPX folder.

Make backup of your folder GPX and then delite current.gpx inside folder GPX andalso Archive folder if you have it inside GPX.
Try this step and you will see where is problem:
remove gupdate.gcd
1.) remove img from nuvi ( add in Pc for backup)
2.) remove Text
3.) Remove voice
4.) remove keyboards
For every step you must flesh first cure to have access to mass storage and then when you create some step above flash with cure to see if your nuvi will turn on.

Oddlly when I tried to delete GPX/Archive/ it wouldn't delete. All files deleted accept 315.gpx and even when I delete, when you refresh the folder it comes back with the same date modified, which is a couple months ago. It's a corrupted file but it cannot be read.
