Unpack the MapSource_6156.exe using eg. WinRar....

Run MSMAIN.exe....

Then run Setup.exe....

Done.... And you won't get any errors....

This is not ONLY mapsource you are installing.... This is a map and mapsource....

To get a "clean" mapsource, download it from here: http://www8.garmin.com/software/MapSource_6156.exe

According to Garmin website "◦WARNING: This software will not work unless you already own a MapSource product"
I think I'll install an older version.

I think I've sussed it out.
I D/L City Navigator Europe 2008 last year with mapsource.
When I D/L the 2010 version, I erased the 2008 map, I also updated MapSource, and now it's asking for the installation of the 2008 map.
I now have to D/L the 2008 map torrent and install it, it should be D/L in 12 hours time.

I now have my MapSource with 2008 map unlocked. I have installed the 2010 map, however it's not listed under 'unlock regions' only under 'Map Product ID' and I think it want's me to unlock it 'Online'. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You must have done something wrong.... I just tested it, and it works...

Unpack the MapSource_6156.exe using eg. WinRar....

Run MSMAIN.exe....

Then run Setup.exe....

Done.... And you won't get any errors....

Sorry, but my version of mapsource is in dansih, but here are some screendumps.....



Choose "help programs" and "manage maps"....



Here you'll see the maps installed....



Choose "open areas" and "add"....

Use the keygenerator to make a new unlock code, insert it and done...

Hi Mike, I deleted the map from Mapsource, and entered the unlock code via Start: Programmes, Garmin/unlock wizard.
Everything is fine now no problems, thanks for your help.
