i have tried to install the igo 8 from a virsion that i have downloaded the containes 2 foders the first folder is the 2577 folder that cotains an autoruam.exe file and the second file is autorun_9.nng the second folder it is the folder that calld igo 8 and contains the maps the pios etc. so i have copied that to the sd card plugd it to the device chose the file to run it but nothing happend

Windows CE devices rarely support autorun.

In the device menu is there a Navi path/GPS setup type option?

There's an icon that calld Navi. And in the navi settings you need
To choose the file of the navigation software from the sd card like I chose the autorun file
And than you need to press the navi icon to run the navigation software

The 2577 folder indicates it's an iGo for PDA (or if you like : Windows mobile phone) version. This will install iGo in flash memory. You can simply (assuming all is copied to SD card) delete the 2577 folder, rename application.dat to igo.exe and set your path to that (renamed) iGo.exe on SD.
BUT : not knowing which iGO build you downloaded and PDA build rarely have a data.zip with a 800*480 resolution, you could run into some troubles. Better is to download a multiresolution iGo like the one I suggested (http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?10941-iGo-8.3.5-Minimal-for-low-power-devices-TBM) or Primo (http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?9656-iGo-Primo-2.0-Build-9.6.5.211211-(Dec-07-2011)-Torrent-TBM) and work from there.

Instructions how to install (it's a matter of download, unrar and copy to sd, next download maps etc, unrar and copy to the right folder(s)) are in those threads.
If you tried my suggestions and they failed, what did you do exactly? how did it fail? was there an error message? We need more information to help.

Hello nabi
first of all i want to say thank you very much for your help.
i have tried to install a multi resolution igo 8 according to your instraction before the installation i have checkd that this version of igo 8 has the 800*480 resolution. i couldent manage to get it work i always get the error massage - "program application database cannot be found." and from here i dont know what to do.
please if you have any other ideas i will be glad if you can help me with that.
Thank you
Eitan

Application database not found means that your device cannot find the correct path to the program. For example, might be Mobilenavigator\IGO8\IGO8.exe. This is an example only. I'm sure that yours will be different.

Thts what I am doing and it keeps send me the massage that I wrote above

Is there a system button on your menu where you can change the path?

I'm sorry to say that i do not agree , if i put any exe in my SD \ folder and rename it to autorun.exe it will execute as soon as i power on the device , a becker z098 with win ce 5.0 , on my SD i've put cecmd.exe so i can browse and execute different igo version on it ...

I was referring to the 2577\Autorun.exe, which is a windows mobile thing.

yes, and i have change the path to the igo.exe file but still i keep getting the same message

eitangold7 wrote:yes, and i have change the path to the igo.exe file but still i keep getting the same message

I'm sorry to disagree but although you might have thought that you changed the path to the correct one obviously you didn't. The device simply cannot find the program. Also try to see the actual internal files and perhaps you have to make the change there instead of just through the menu. We don't have your device in front of us so it's you that has to do the work. Good luck.

I don't know the program you're using but the .exe is usually called igo8.exe not igo.exe. Just a suggestion.
