Just bought the epix 2 and the topo map for Europe and encountered the same problem as many others: although I had not installed any other files before, the map would not load, even when selecting just a region such as Central Europe, as it stated that there was not enough storage space (despite the file size information suggesting the opposite); I was about to return the watch because this is really terrible customer management and customer experience by Garmin, I tried what another user suggsted (but went beyond his suggestion) and deleated all map files I could find via explorer; now I have the entire Europe map on the watch and it seems to work (ie not only regions such as Central Europe)! Will let you know if the watch breaks down in the next few days...
