Have you tried what I suggested ealier ? Format the SD card and do it all again, maybe there was a copying error.
If you're using a USB card reader make sure windows has copied it all and none remains cached by using 'Safely Remove Hardware' and 'Stopping' the device.
Otherwise try searching the DVD for the license.db file.

Have formatted and retried a number of times. I will search the DVD next time I see my friend.
Many thanks.

Just had a thought, did you have the actual device attached via the USB when you tried to download the maps to the SD Card?
Maybe the install software copys the license from the device itself. Don't know but I am going to give it a try.
Cheers

Hi Trevf,
You owe me a very large beer!!
I have solved the problem.
You only need to create a folder called \maps on the SD card and the maps show up.

Hi Trevf,
It definately works but just to clarify further, you need to make a folder on the SD card just called maps and let the DVD install the maps into this folder instead of \miomaps\maps
Cheers

Paul,
Did you need to do anything special with the Licence.DB file or just let it create itself?
Thanks
Trev

Hi Trevf,
I just let the license.db file be created where the install prog wanted it to go.
Good luck
Cheers
