i had downgraded from 3.10 to 2.70 because it locked up at roundabouts but by doing so ive lost all the extra european cities.

why would changing the firmware affect the mapping on the software?

Did it lock up in Nav mode, or just Map mode? I've seen this under 3.10 in Map, but not in Nav.

If you re-upgrade to v3.1 do the maps reappear???? Confused

Changing firmware should not affect mapping data in anyway.

Is your unit one of the older models with mapping on a TF card or mapping loaded to the unit?

I have read this elsewhere on the forum; that this where to 'option' is not part of earlier builds.

Bizarre......

How does it act with other firmware versions? 2.82, 2.9 or 3.0?
