Firstly look in your garmindevice.xml to confirm the HWID
<PartNumber>006-B2267-00</PartNumber>
<SoftwareVersion>610</SoftwareVersion>
<Description>DriveSmart 50</Description>
Only if 2267 use the HWID in search this topic and you will find the Patch & Instructions

I successfully put the img in the map folder and it didn't recognize it, but when I put it directly in the GARMIN folder, it recognized it. THANKS
