Does anyone have picture of the navigation update from gen 2 or 3 system from a older version to 6.1 or 7.1? I Think my update has gone wrong. And I need some picture of how the new navigation 6.1 or 7.1 look like... Please help

I do have a photo, but I don't recall seeing any major change in the appearance of the display after installing either of the two newer data DVDs. I can't imagine that a photo would provide any useful information to you, but here's shot of the screen in my '04 RX, which is a Gen 3 system using the 06 DVD data.

Remember that you are updating the data, not the operating system. Newer models have newer hardware, including screens with higher resolution and different modes of display. It's pretty hard to tell until you come across a road or POI that was different in your old database. Use the menu to call up the version number on the screen, and search the POI database for restaurants or gas stations or other POI that you know are newer than the date of your old DVD.
