Hi guys

Havent the first clue how to fix tis as its all new to me

I have an Eonon D5122 running wince 6.0

Trying to get iGo8 running on it but when i load it, it just resets the whole system

i get the error message "iGO8.map not found"

i do have uk maps on it so no idea why it'd say this

We could use some more info. What iGO build? Where you got it?
The error message "iGO8.map not found" is in crash.txt? Then don't worry about it. The maps are not the cause of the crash, but it means your iGO is a non official one.

Thanks for your reply

Its iGo 8.3.5 194796 yes that message is from a crash.txt file

Its worked for others

Is there one on here that'll work?

What are you looking for iGO8 or Primo?

Copying an installation from one device to another can give problems, did you delete the save folder and checked the resolutions in sys.txt?

Didnt do that as I dont know the first thing about all this

I just want the best sat nav software with postcode search

Have heard iGo8 meant to be pretty good

Open the sys.txt in Notepad and remove the [folders] section.

ok it loaded but it doesnt fill the screen

my screen resolution is 800 x 480

it also didnt show any map. it was just a blue arrow on a black screen. i put the uk map i have in the map folder on the root

Within the sys.txt, will be references to the resolution, like...

[interface]
resolution_dir="320_240"

...and there may be a...

[rawdisplay]

section.

Change the numerical values to match your screen resolution, ie...

[interface]
resolution_dir="800_480"

Also you may need to edit the gps section...

[gps]
Port=7
Baud=57600

...to match your device's settings!
