Did you disconnect the device properly afer updating ( Safely Remove Hardware Option)...
n did you give time once u updated the device... coz the update file of 2.6 is quite large n takes some time to install about 3-4min...

Try using the wepupdater and do the whole updating process all over again though it might take some time...

Try a hard reset on the device if that doesnt work then i guess u'll have to contact the garmin Tech support.... might have to send ur device to them for reloading the software on it...

I spoke to the garmin tech support over the phone this is a known problem with the updater there's nothing to fix it they just get it replaced. and they have also told not to use the updater at this time as they are trying to correct the updater..
