Download the WebUpdater from the garmin site, attach the 765t to a usb port on your computer, and register the device. (At this stage, it is not functioning as a gps, but as an external usb drive.)
On registration, it will receive a software update. After that is done, your computer screen will tell you updates are available: click on update now. The gps firmware will be updated. It is only after you have safely removed hardware for the 765t connection, that the gps will restart and install the firmware.

If the unit refuses to power on, it has to go back to the factory for repair (at your expense), and the current turnaround is claimed as 10 days...... Read more
