I have to wonder if my instructions are clear enough. Perhaps there is some misunderstanding. Would anyone else like to make a contribution post?

yes mobilenavigator.exe all one word , SD name is SDMMC, only folder on the device with files in is the windows folder,and loads of files in there lots of INK files i cant open,id upload images but exceed my allowance on here

Clarification time:
You have a FOLDER on the SD Card named mobilenavigator, correct?
Inside that folder are all the iGo files and folders with iGo8.exe renamed to mobilenavigator.exe, correct?
MOVE the sys.txt file from the SD Card (inside the mobilenavigator folder) to your PC. Edit the file with notepad as stated above...just put the semi-colons in front of the two lines. Save the sys.txt file. Copy sys.txt back to the mobilenavigator folder on the SD Card.
Report back what happens.

You have an iGO8 program presently on a SD card from the manufacturer. Do they have anything from them that will give you a clue?

Sorry to drop in, but don't too many cooks not spoil the soup here ?? Do this. Do that.

Not necessarily in this case. When a member might have difficulty with one person's instructions, sometimes someone else can fill-in with something else to try. We're talking trial and error. This is what makes the Navitotal team of mods the best on the net!

checked all of this and did all of this works fine gps launches and starts set up i select english language and get a sound thats tells me it is selected but nothing happens it stays on that screen

You don't see a "Next" button?
If not, it's probably off the screen as the included sys.txt is not setup for your resolution (320-240).
Exit out, move sys.txt to your PC as before and change this:

Code: Select all

resolution_dir="480_272"

to this:

Code: Select all

resolution_dir="320_240"

Save sys.txt, copy back to SD Card and try again.

Glad to hear that you got it going.

This is because you now have the wrong resolution in the sys.txt. This is one of the changes that you have to make. In the sys.txt of the program, you'll see the values of 480_272. I want you to change those values to 320_240. Don't forget to save the sys.txt before exiting the application.

Also, I want you to delete the save folder.

Just saw your post YT.

that works fine and has now loaded up and i can veiw florida map but screen keeps flickering any ideas ?

It sounds like it's approaching memory error. Did you add any contents at all besides the map and the POIs?
I want NO dems, speedcams, buildings - nothing but what I gave you.

Did you delete the save folder like I recommended above?

it has uk and florida map and florida POI's would removing uk map help its only ever going to be used in florida

lots of stuff in the phone me folder , lots in themes, and some voices in voice folder i will not use does removing these help

Absolutely remove anything UK. Also, what language are your going to use - US or UK?

You should keep one map of wherever you currently are to check that the GPS can lock and show your current location.

You can delete that entire folder..it's only for TTS which that device will never have.
