I accidentally formated my GPS. and now im not able to detect gps when i connect it to PC. I have backup of gps files. but to copy them i first need to detect it. it doesnt have any files since i formatted it.Only the screen starts up with Garmin on it.
In order to access the unit's internal flash drive, a service firmware needs to be flashed on the unit. This will allow the unit to boot only as a flash drive and a PC will now recognize it. The backup files may now be transferred over to the unit. Then the units firmware must be flashed with the normal factory firmware (v6.3 as of 3/8/16). More info on boot-up issues can be found here:
