Well if it was a full program and a legit purchase from eBay then I would ask for my money back or contact the seller direct for advice, if not then we cannot help you on this forum.

You should try to get your money back. Then report the seller to e-bay for selling Illegal software and breaking copyright laws.

They will close his e-bay account and delete his stuff for sale. More people ought to report these guys. E-bay take it quite seriously - they have to.

http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/policies/unauthorized-copies.html which also gives a link to customer support for reporting.

I get no maps found errors every time I use the software as well. Mine is a from a genuine source. I have to eject the CF card and reinsert each time. I have tried formatting the CF and recopying using card reader and through the PDA. The IPAQ 5450 seems to "loose" some of the files on the card after a while.

When it says no maps found, if I look at the Storage Card through the PDA only two folders appear and not the ones with the map details. Eject and reload it is fine.

So now I do a reset and eject and reload on each use. Not impressed.

Always like to COPY and PASTE rather than DRAG and DROP. I have had problems in the past which only copy and paste were able to sort. As a matter of interest I am anxious to know what the real difference is and why copy/paste is more reliable. I don't say this has any relevance to your problem here.

Update....

Today I went to a store and got the real thing. WORKING!!!

As I said in an earlier post, similar to Ebay. During the last couple of years Iīve been shopping over the internet...this is the first time somebody ripped me off. Guess I had it coming, huh...
F*cking !
