Hi, I'm a newbie just starting to use a GPS Navigator brought from China. ( It is 3.5" monitor which is fixed in a rearview mirror).

The problem I have is the shop doesn't provide me with the latest Malaysia maps and I don't know how to install it. :cry:

The GPS navigator startup showing IGO, anyone there can help me so that I can install the updated maps ?
Besides, how do I back up the file since the original maps is in the internal memory of the device.
