Navman Support - Sync with PC

I have just downloaded December's POIs and went to update my iCN510 with the data but MS Active sync would not recognise the device. I checked for later software and found v 4.1.0 (Build 4841) on the MS site and downloaded it and overwrote the old version. Reconnected the Navman and it was instantly recognised. However, when I started the Smart ST Desktop (v3 for iCN series i3_1_2_31) it come up with the dialog " A problem with your iCN has been detected. Power off and on to fix the problem then click OK." Did this with no result....several times, in fact.
Thought I would check with Navman Technical Support but on navigating to the tech support web site it tells me

I know that you also have the same problem disconnecting the ICN from USB as I do. Perhaps in doing so you may have corrupted the memory or something...?

I still get the ASSERT error from time to time...

Gee-Pee Do you still have the problem with disconnecting the USB?

I have a 520 and there is no way that I can find of "politely" disconnecting it from the USB cable.

From what I understand, that's the only way to do it. I looked for the unit under 'Safely Remove Hardware' but did not see it. I don't think it does any harm other than a reset but maybe someone can correct me?
