I have spent thousands of dollars with them and have NEVER had a bad experience. I too will stay buying all electronics from them unless things change with them!

Trying to get back to factory defaults for everything so I can at least use the Navcam software. Could anyone link me or hook me up with the files from the Original Navcam CD? Thanks in Advance!

If i didn't use it for a couple of days, it won't retain the temporary settings like desktop shortcuts. I had to manually update my shortcuts and run the gps software. My solution was to use mortscript (http://www.sto-helit.de/index.php) . I call this script through registry at start up. This automatically updates my desktop shortcuts and runs the software Igo. To use the script use PNA folder in mortscript download and rename the autorun.exe to anything like start.exe and create a new file start.mscr and put the script in this file. I am posting the script for reference. you can modify it #This script restore a clean shortcuts to windows If (DirExists("\MyStorage\links")) Delete "\Windows\Desktop\*.lnk" XCopy "\MyStorage\links\*.lnk", "\Windows\Desktop\" EndIf # Run iGO and run taskbar after exit RunWait \MyStorage\igo\iGO.exe run \MyStorage\tools\Taskbar.exe exit Now with battery dead (hard reset) I just plug in the power turn and I am ready to go.
