Garmin mapsource “Previous MapSource not found!” error
I just wanted to do a fgresh install of Garmin program MapSource and I downloaded the installation files from garmin webpage.
When I try to install “Setup.exe” Iget an error “Previous MapSource not found!“.
So I checked the net for answers and solution to the problem and I found one that works.
MapSource Installation instructions:
1. Download MapSource software updater from Garmin.
2. Extract file MapSource_6156.exe downloaded using 7-zip or WinRAR.
3. From the extracted files, run MSMAIN.msi.
4. After that you can run Setup.exe and installation will be successfull.
Have a nice day and start using the MapSource for Garmin navigation…

For some reason i didn’t succeed to fix that trouble…
Will go on searching for the solution.
Why Garmin? There are lots of software solutions offered by a number of mobile application development companies that are able to turn a smartphone into a full-functional GPS navigator. Isn’t that a way more practical than having only navigation device?
Anyway, I should have thought about it BEFORE now;))

I don’t like Wordpress even a little, but this is nice-looking in spite of that. Good work.
