I was working in Taiwan and purchased a Garmin nuvi 265W. I'm now in Canada and would like to remove the Taiwan map and replace it with a North American map.

Does your Garmin Nuvi 265W GPS get stuck or freeze at startup, or when loading maps?

Looking to reflash the firmware / system software for your Garmin GPS device?

Replacing the brains of your Garmin GPS is the surest way to resolve freezing, hanging, and erratic behavior. Keeping the system software and firmware in your Garmin GPS current and up-to-date is also the best way to keep it performing well.

Your GPS may not start properly at all, and display a 'System Software Missing" message. This tip will describe how to restore your Garmin Nuvi GPS system software using Garmin Webupdater.

My gps is set on peru and i am in the us, the gps can not find the maps of us. thx ziv

You'll have to load the North American maps into the unit. Go to www.garmin.com and register your unit with the site. You will then be able to purchase the north american maps and download to your unit using the Garmin updater on the site. The maps are all serialized to work with each unit ID, so a North American map on another user's Garmin will not work on yours (it is Garmin's proprietary copy protection system).

I have just purchased a lifetime North America update (010-D-129-00). How can I know if these updates have now been installed on my GPS?

You need to check what the maps are labeled as, it should clearly state 2008 or 2011 etc. You can check this on either the computer or the device itself. If its not 2011 on the device it isn't the newest maps.

Does this Nuvi 265W for $150.00 has the lifetime maps?

Hi.

No it doesn't. Garmin devices have one free map update included when you buy it new. You need to register your product online to get it.

You can purchase lifetime map updates on garmin.com or buy one upgrade at a time.

Can I upload new maps (europe, Mexico, Puerto Rico, etc) to my Garmin nüvi 265W? It only comes with US Map and I want to make sure I can use it when I travel

Yes, you can go to Garmin.com and purchase additional maps to use on your Nuvi. These can be purchased either as CDs or on individual SD cards inserted into your unit.

Travelling to Ireland, from Canada in Sept. will ours work or is a new program needed?

If you purchased your unit in North America, it likely has maps of Canada, the US and Puerto Rico. If you are taking it outside these areas, you would need to purchase maps for the country to which you are going. Maps are available for purchase from www.garmin.com or your local GPS retailer.

My nuvi 265W screen keeps flashing the "GARMIN" startup logo...and wont stop

I can help you reset and fix your Garmin Nuvi 265W.

Getting stuck on the flashing Garmin logo, or a message about not finding any maps, are indications that the firmware / system software inside your GPS has been corrupted.

There are three steps to take to get your Nuvi 265W running like new:

  1. Back up your Favorites.
  2. Perform a Hard Reset.
  3. Download and then run Garmin WebUpdater to replace its firmware / system software.

I hope that helps.
