my GPS MYGUIDE 4328 do not recognise my SD card

Sun Feb 13, 2011 9:04 am

In native the navigation software is fitted in the internal memory.
So fitted a mort script menu which works very well and actuates all the applications I added on the flash memory.
But I do not find the exact syntax command to go to the added SD card.
This is bad as I intend to fit there igo8 and some other utilities software’s.
What is please the correct syntax or what could be different command syntaxes to test?
Many thanks in advance.

To run something on a SD Card from internal memory use an absolute path like

Run ("\Storage Card\Primo\iGO.exe")

Where "Storage Card" is the name of the SD Card, May be SDMMC etc

What Fatboyfun is saying is that your SD card might be named something else. It might be SDCARD, SD CARD, SDMMC, STORAGECARD, STORAGE CARD, etc. You just have to keep trying. But once you have it, you'll always know now. Good luck.

Any file explorer like filemance or total commander will tell you what it's called.

I did it and saw that SD was named: storage card in two words.
So i tested following syntaxes without any success:

Run ("\Storage Card\igo8\igo8.exe")
Run "\Storage Card\igo8\igo8.exe"
Newinit="\storage card\igo8\igo8.exe"
("\storage card\igo8\igo8.exe")
"\Storage Card\igo8\igo8.exe"
Newinit=.."\storage card\igo8\igo8.exe"
Newinit=..("\storage card\igo8\igo8.exe")

Have you any ideas?
I am in the whole!

One thing that's flummoxed me on more than one occasion is extra spaces in filenames...

Example

Run ("\Storage Card\iGO8\ iGO.exe")

It's difficult to spot these so double check all file and folder names, Also run the .exe manually from a file explorer just to check there isn't a problem elsewhere.

The command

Run ("\Storage Card\iGO8\iGO.exe")

is the correct one.

I tested the exe file manually from the file explorer and no surprise it works well the SD card is OK and navigator is oK.
but with syntax:newini= Run ("\Storage Card\igo8\igo8.exe") I got error message during main shell loading:
iconXbutton ignoriere fehler so the button command is ignored and nothing happens when this button is pushed from my menu.
and with the syntax: newini= Run ("\Storage Card\igo8\ igo8.exe") (the extra space in filename)
The button can be actuated and give at once the error message:
error message: igo8.exe cannot find igo8/ or one of its component.
But manually as told above the navigator works perfectly.
I become mad!

Suddenly it all makes sense...

You are using systeminformation1.6 not mortscript.

What you need to use is...

Command = \Storage Card\iGO8\iGO.exe

SystemInformation cannot use relative paths (..\) when dealing with executables.
