    That 1.36GB could explain your basemap and preloaded US map missing from your .system folder as shown in the [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]. If you copied it before you deleted it or if you have a backup, have a look to see what's in it. It's a fair bet the time & date of the .CHK files will coincide with you having not safely removed the nuvi from your pc, or an aborted update attempt through WebUpdater.

    This is an output file from Windows Chkdsk with Fix Option.
    It contains recovered information which was previously corrupted.

    All files likes *.chk and FOUND.000 is recovery copies of file system. If you do not want rescue it content you may delete it without doubt!!!

    Usually if you have *.chk or FOUND.000 files on your PC it may be an early sign of Hard Drive Failure.

    So what do you have in your Nuvi's Map folder, apart from those cx's, India map and any other maps that you have added? Is your preloaded North America/US map or only your basemap in there? Because i think your NA/US map may be the source of all those little .chk files. If you have no basemap in the .system folder, the only other place it could be on the nuvi itself is in the Map folder.

    To my knowledge nothing inside my nuvi, except for those basic folders. INside Extra\GPS folder I have a gmapsupp and a gmapsuptn., and system, GArmin, and GPX folders.

    Is there anyhthing else for nuvi 1300. I have enabled all the features, got my language guide (I'm only getting English to - french, Italian, german, spanish, portugese) For more languages? And anything else to be fiddled with?
    TIA
