Garmin pros... need help with locked maps.

My pa-inlaw gave me his old Garmin StreetPilot III along with the map CD (City Navigator v5) and unlock codes. Everything went fine installing the software including entering the 25 digit unlock code.

I loaded the SW US to the 128 Mb card using the external card reader. That went fine too. But, when I put the card in the SPIII and turned it on it came up with an error that the maps were locked. I'm confused because I tried loading the maps before I realized there was an unlock code and the software warned me I was trying to load locked maps. I got no warning this time from the software so I thought everything was OK. Any suggestions?
