@aekhong
Your English is quite OK

. Mine is sometimes too 'long-winded' (overly descriptive) but you would know how paranoid I am about inexperienced people trying to cross-flash, especially with 1xxx/2xxx. However, your knowledge is vastly superior to mine in fw flashing, and what knowledge i do have has been from kind people such as you sharing their experience. I really didn't need to get involved at all, but i thought you'd gone offline. He's in good safe hands with you

If you have software missing and your Pc wont recognize nuvi just remove SD or add SD inside and Pc will recognize it

No wory 1xxx never die if you have wrong FW flashed on nuvi.
I flash 37xx FW (original with no change of boot.bin) on 1xxx but i have software missing and then flash back nuvi 1xxx FW and my nuvi still work.

How about to force power off while system software missing happen on 1xxx?
My friend don't know about this , he powered off and his nuvi was dead.

I just notice that better to keep power on and try to reflash with original firmware.

Yes,when on nuvi screen write software missing then nuvi whait in preboot and is ready to flash again but if you turn it off when wrong FW is in nuvi then i dontknow what happend becouse i never try this i always try to flash different FW with no power off.
I search for death nuvi series 1xxx to try repair when he wont boot but i cant find death nuvi 1xxx

Must be some way to repair this nuvi or we must find out how Garmin add FW in chip.

@ stevejohno

Modded nuvi as post #1 and post #673?

Try this JCV [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and routes vith simulation GPS

Bye,bye

EDIT: exactly which path ?

@stevejphno
All US/AU etc and early EU 1300 'out of the box' lacked LA, JCV & SLI. You have fw 6.10 so you can flash using acelite's sd method: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] (Post #673). If the jcv file you have actually matches the map (i haven't checked) jv will work. Just remember that only some major junctions/exits have jv, not all.
