Myguide 3100 Running IGO Software

So how do you run I-Go from it??
I have been using I-Go on my TyTN and love it, this would be ideal for £90 if I can transfer my I-Go card and get it running fully.

I know it looks pretty much the same but it seems the maps are old from reading the threads.

i edited the addon txt file to enable the extra icons.
from there i can run the I-GO software from the sd card within windows using windows explorer but as i have already said the screen orientation is the wrong way round.

Navigate = "", "\\Flash Disk\\myguide\\myguide.exe"
Explorer = "", "\\Windows\\Explorer.exe"
Multimedia = "", "\\Flash Disk\\Xmovie\\xmovie""

There is an option somewhere in I-Go to rotate the screen, so you should be able to get it looking right.

Can you get the unit to boot straight into windows?? I put i-go in my start up folder so it booted straight away on my TyTN.

In fact can you edit the Navigation button to load I-Go instead??

Navigate = "", "\\Windows\\program files\\igo\\igo.exe"

Or where ever it is located??

With the screen rotated i cant see what all the functions are so its hard to find the option to rotate the screen.

Hi norris26,

I had the same problem with the igo software on myguide 3100. You need to change the sys.txt file to have the following in it. Best bet is to create a copy of the existing one, delete the information and add the following.

Cheers,

Paul.

[device]
type="CARPOINTA1000"

[debug]
earth=0
slowsim=1
loop_sim=1

[interface]
landscape=1
show_zoombar=1

Thanks to everyone for all their help. I deleted all the myguide stuff of the satnav and replaced it with the Igo software. It was then just a matter of editing all the text files with the correct paths to run it and look for the maps on the sd card.

Can anyone help with actually getting activesync/windows to recognise my 3100? the support on the official website never gets back to my emails Sad

What are you wanting to do with active sync??

abharsair · Occasional Visitor Joined: Jul 31, 2007 Posts: 3

actually connect my device would be a start ;)

then when that is working possibly load the igo software etc

Hello!

All this talk of running the Igo software on the MyGuide 3100- I take it that the purpose of this is to make use of map updates?

Also, where does one get the igo software in the first place?
