When you done the update you should then press the re-set on the back and put it where it can get data from the Sat's and forget it about it for 2 or 3 hours while it sorts itself out then all will be ok , I had the same and did the same , if you want some POI's
check mine out.I am always adding more or updating

thanks doug,tried the reset and restore default settings to no avail,both Garmin & GME were not surprised about the loss of map data...sounded like they have been doing quite a few map reloads..
