Thanks. Which link do I click on...

Sorry for the techo-idiocy.

the updated map would be "compressed gmapsupp.img"....

how do you transfer maps to your device? via Mapsource or via copy-paste?

I used Mapsource when I 1st downloaded OSM. Same link lang pala for the update. Thanks very much.

download the compressed gmasupp.img to your pc. unzip the file and transfer this to the sd card of your garmin device. make sure to back up the original one.

Copy-paste it to your device. Be sure to first backup the original gmapsupp.img in your device....

^ straight from nuvi ... iirc, its on settings/map/info, you would see check marks on enabled maps, uncheck/check the map you want to disable/enable

As previously mentioned on this thread, RoadGuide overrides OSM so make sure to switch from one over to another depending on which location has better POI's.

you mean i really need to replace the "gmapsupp.img" of Roadguide if i want to use OSM map?

Here's how I do it: the OSM file is loaded in the gps' internal memory and I placed the Roadguide file in an SD card. If I want to use Roadguide I leave the SD card inserted. If I want OSM I just pull out the SD card.
