    Just ran the updater. It sad that it "updated successfully."

    Then when I unplugged it and it tried to boot up, I now get the message "System Software Missing."

    Rut-ro.

    Stand by...

    Thats odd, I actually did it through MyGarmin Dashboard and it worked fine. Try hooking it up again and reinstall the software if possible.

    I found that the new software version is 2.70, and found the changes associated with it. Not easy at all to find on the garmin site, I had to google it.

    • Corrected issue where FMI ETA message was not being sent automatically when a route is calculated
    • Corrected issue in FMI delete protocol where a packet receipt would only be sent upon failure
    • Corrected LBA log file corruption issue
    • Prevented power button from powering-off unit during GCD update
    • Corrected issues where some microSD cards are not recognized
    • Corrected issue in custom POI along route/road search
    Changes made from version 2.20 to 2.50:


    • Added new warning for off-route restrictions on the current road.
    • Added customization for Sharp Curve Warnings.
    • Added grey traffic icon in poor traffic reception conditions.
    • Removed the Truck Type from the Truck Profile settings.

    Had to reload the firmware using a special file from Garmin because it somehow corrupted. Anyway, all done now. Very curious what you and Kajidono say about this unit's rerouting / detour issues with this update in.

    It was before this update Diesel, it just seems the 465T likes to take you off the main highway and put you on some secondary route, only in my experience to be put back on that main highway again. It doesnt really make any sense.

    Well, here's another bug. Trying to enter an address in town on a us highway and it will not allow it. It just comes up with a list of random points along the highway, ignoring the numbers entered. Sure be nice if it worked since I'm down to 0 options to find this place.
