You must've installed and enabled another map which is overlapping the MFM map, and I'd guess it's the Thailand Street Map. If my guess is right, just disable the other map at Tools > Settings > Map > Map Info.

Are you sure? Can you list out all maps listed at Map Info (maybe you did not scroll down at the list for more maps)? Looking at your Nuvi screen shots, the area where the roads do not appear is consistent with the area and outline of the Thailand StreetMap (pls refer image below). Now it certainly looks like this map is installed and enabled in your Nuvi. :-k

This behavior is also consistent with my overlap theory.

You need to untick all maps except the 3 MFM maps. If the first listed maps do not have a check box beside it, then it must be using GMAPOEM.IMG name in Nuvi:\Garmin folder (you need to rename this file or remove it completely since it's apparent that the map is an illegit map).

BTW, the highlighted map is the map I was referring to earlier.

You're welcome.

As for using GMAPOEM.IMG file name in \Garmin folder, it's not advisable for most maps, because the installed map may not be disabled at Map Info.
