I got a NEW 8gb sd card.

FORMATTED it

I used Navigator 17 Utility to install the sd card

First I installed the navigation app    - Successful no errors

Then I installed the maps                   - Succseful no errors

I then inserted the sd card into my radio/gps device I
switched on ignition I switched from tuner to gps It prompted me for the
purchased licence key I gave it:

*****-*****-*****-*****-URG97

It liked it, gave me the activation code:

****/****/BKFP

I came back to the pc and went to the registration page I
submitted all my details, purchased licence code and activation code, it liked
it first time  The page gave me a NEW licence code I took it to
the car.

I entered the licence code and it liked it.

I exited the gps and switched off ignition.

I switched on and selected GPS again

I immediately went to the blue display with the world
maps I selected MENU started to configure the installation I registered one
address(destination) and had it displayed on the maps. Looked fine.

I tried to edit the speed cameras warning sounds.  NO '.WAV' files!!!!!

I Exited the Gps and switched ignition off again Switched
on again.

Gives Hardware check failed

Now re-iterated and prompt repeatedly for
licence code, on replying NO, the FREE version wants to work (limited!)

I don’t know what to say. What bugs me most, the
halfbaked nng navi go, which I got with the car works perfectly, but cannot be upgraded......
and on similar sd card!!!! I figured maybe that does not do a hardware check,
don’t really know, I start to feel really inapt!!!. I believe I do everything
correct.

(Once my wifes garmin nuvi gave problems, I FORMATTED IT
and reloaded the original software which I backed up when we bought it about
ten years ago, did the updates, I bought maps for life and speedcams, installed
the works and that device is STILL super, working unit!)

This one is NOT going easy!!!

Any Suggestions?
