System software missing garmin 250w
If the unit indicates "software/firmware missing", then you can only try to re-install firmware by running WebUpdater again. If it doesn't work, then the unit has to be sent to service to have it re-flashed.

New , later maps for the Garmin take up more space that what unit has in available memory - so you have to get an sd memory card to put in the slot when you do the update.

Nuvi 250w will not turn on
I had the very same problem with my 250w. After trying to push the reset button while holding "on" (which didn't do anything at all), I decided to open it. If you have a valid warranty, I'd recommend sending it for repair. Anyway, since my warranty was over, I unplugged the battery and replugged it. Miraculously, the device turned on.
If you intend to open it, here is how I proceeded:
-Remove the sticker strip (which covers the reset button)
-Unscrew the 2 screws (you'll need a special screwdriver, T6)
-Open the cover (carefully, there are wires holding the 2 pieces together) with a flat screwdriver (the most difficult part)
-Once you are done, unscrew the 3 screws that you see on the back cover to reach the battery. Then unplug the battery and replug it.
-Once you've done this, you can immediately check if it turns on.
I hope this will somehow help you.

This tip will describe how to perform a hard reset of the device, and how to
backup your 'Favorites' in case the hard reset erases them. The next step in fixing your Nuvi when it doesn't start properly is to
update its system software using Garmin WebUpdater.
A hard reset (or Clear All User Data) has been known to resolve unit quirks and strange behavior. It's generally recommended to perform it after a firmware update but is not required by any means. However, if you're seeing quirks and strange behavior with your unit after the firmware update, it is a good idea to do a hard reset of the unit.
Will not turn on
Most issues causing this is a bad charger, dead battery or caused by a
loose USB port in the back. If the port is loose, the battery will not
be charged and won't even work when connected to an external charger.
