It seems like something isn't right, When i put the sd card in the unit the application loads fine but then it just reloads and reloads and reloads And it never starts up. This is what the sys file looks like this

Which version of iGO8 did you use?

Also is there any error messages?

I used this http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?6880-Igo8-March-5-2011 I was told that this was the correct one.

Yes that is a good place to start, however things sometimes do need tweaking to work on certain devices.

Is there any error messages? Or where does it stop loading? (There is text in the bottom right of the loading screen)

Is the device rebooting or going back to the menu?

No I don't get any error message. It reboots back to the menu yes exactly, and continues to reload and the same thing over and over again just loads back to menu reloads menu...

This is only a portion of my sys.txt. Where is the rest?

And at what point? What is the lastest text in the bottom right of the loading screen ?

I don't see your device so please be clear !!! We need more info, we are not all seeing.

This is my full sys.txt. Changed resolution for you.

The sys.txt by Chas521 is quite different from yours. So what other changes did you make to the program since sys.txt can not be and is not responsible for restart ?

I just used that same sys file changed were it says 480x272- to 480x234. Now it's not even loading it says error- program application database cannot be found. Rrrrr..

All it is saying is that it can't find the path to the program. Play around a bit.

Try something like this:

[folders]
sdcardpath="\Storage Card\igo8"

I've also seen this for an eonon. You can try it but don't forget to back-up the original sys.txt just in case.

[interface]
skin="ui_igo8"
resolution_dir="480_234"
vga=0

[rawdisplay]
driver="gdi"
class="landscape"
highres=0
screen_x=480
screen_y=234

I have a question as well for the OP..

Are you auto loading the program or, do you have your GPS drop out to explorer and then click the icon to load the GPS software?
