so.. dose the unit has this City navigation-NT 2010 already installed, or did you just read that of the box ?
in case the unit is equipped with a miniSD you may only got a 1GB card in it or less, with no maps at all, in that case you are running on the world basemap I presume...

Now just to let you know... the process of transferring all European maps to a 2GB miniSD last some 12 hours ! one reason why I bought the Garmin miniSD with the pre loaded maps in the end and not the DVD !

check out what is installed in the unit, there must be a point in the menu that is showing you what maps are active and you may find out that way what part is missing that coursing you headache...

In case you got the "city navigator-NT 2010" on the chip which I don't think you have, look if you got the maps from Turkey, Greece, all the Baltic and most of the Balkan without Serbia and the Ukraine....
I agree bad spelling in a map address/database is not a trusty start off...
