So, anyone that will attempt to do this update just let it do its thing.

Then all of a sudden the screen said something like: Update Successful, Please Restart GPS To Complete. The unit must have continued this 'no apparent activity' for at least 15-20 minutes. I thought - great everything was fine with this GPS until I applied the 'fix'. But then all appeared to stop, no noticeable activity on my computer hard-drive, and no activity visible on the GPS.Īfter sitting and watching 'nothing happen' for a couple minutes I really did begin to sweat.

I also received the email informing me of the mandatory update for the Garmin 1300. My problem began on July 8th and had I checked my e-mail the day before I could have saved myself a big hassle!!!!! My problem is I didn't read the message until my nüvi 1490T froze up and started cycling the Garmin logo page over and over and won't start up so I have to send my unit in for repairs.
