Nuvi 3590LMT map and speed problems

If there's no Basemap you must have deleted it somehow. Did you back up your files when you got your nuvi? If so find the Basemap and copy it back.

Using BaseCamp simply launches MapInstall, so no, not a good idea to use that either. Both are really aimed at handheld devices which don't have things like junction view, voice files etc.

Yes, deleting the xml file will cause your Garmin to recreate it but I'd be surprised if that's the issue.

I am not sure that it was backed up, I have found a file called Gmapbmap.img, would that be the one? If so where do I put it and does it require any other files with it?
I was going to post a screenshot of the system folder contents but cannot find where to put that on here

Found another file gmapsupp.img ? I have not deleted any .img files I have them all in a folder

Garmin express, does that not back it up?

Yes, Gmapbmap.img is the Basemap. It needs to go back into the .system folder.

gmapsupp.img is probably your Cyprus OSM map.

Express only backs up user data (favourites and trips)

That's great, does it require any other files with it? Do I just copy and paste it the folder?

I am downloading the full 2017.10 map again to my sd card using GE, I renamed the Garmin folder on my computer to _old, so hopefully I might get a non corrupted map this time. I see it created a new Garmin folder under the C:\ProgrammeData folder.

You have been really great I cannot thank you enough for your help. I will post my results tomorrow, thanks again for all your help. Very Happy
