INIT.API means you have a license problem.
Your license is not compatible with the iGO. What iGO? Where did you get it?

You downloaded the iGO from links from this site? And you have a license problem? Strange. You downloaded an iGO that someone uploaded maybe?
Was it a clean install from scratch? (started with a formatted sd card) I suggest you follow he instructions in these threads:
http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?909-Double-din-2Din-GPS-How-to-install-thread
http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?910-How-to-install-iGO8-from-scratch

One remark: some links may have died or disappeared (because they are dead), like the language files for iGO.
You could use the ones you have.

Edit:
When I said "what iGO?", I meant the full version number of your iGO8. To read that, without actually running the program, and doing "Help" - "About", insert your SD into your card reader, go to "igo8.exe", right click "Properties" - "Version" - "Product Version" - and read the "Value".

I would like to see the video, but I can't. :( Youtube is blocked at my workdesk.
I gave the most certain (at least 95%) solution, a license problem. But there is a chance the problem lies elsewhere; and that is a wrong path in sys.txt. In fact, it is related to the SDHC driver implementation on some devices.
Worse to give good advice here is the path is device dependent.
So hoping this is the good one:pray: add to sys.txt

[device]
sdcard_dsk_num=7

[color=black]Maybe some more explanation here
[/color]In the license is the IDnumber of the iGO sd card. Each sd card has a hardware number. This way, the official program is related to a specific sd card. So is a safety to prevent illegal copies. The SDHC driver reads the SD card number and checks with the license.
This way of operation also means there is an interaction between the SDHC driver and the license. If there is a fault, a INIT API fault, it is license related, no doubt. That is why I said to replace the license. But the license fault can in rare case be linked to the driver checking the sd card number. On some devices, only a specific iGO sys.txt line solves it.
