It's ok if they want to kick me out. Doesn't matter.

Thanks bro Ong for fixing Ubi Rd 1/Airport Rd so fast in this release.

err... how come the mfm map installation is different from mine? I don't get the portion that says to install the contour map.

What I do is that after downloading, I will run the installer up to the point where it has the option to either install for mapsource or for nuvi/mobile/etc. I choose mapsource, final screen ask if I want to create gmapsup.img, I press no. Installation complete.

Open mapsource, check mapset, use the map tool to highlight and the map is there. I then have the choice to delete whichever mapset I want or don't need...

That's exactly what I did but I created gmapsupp.img to copy to mSD. And voila... all's working fine. Mapsource v6.13.7 works beautifully. BTW, do you install MFM-SRTM in your Garmin Folder?

I just download from SG (chaicka) mirror. Using Mapsource 6.13.7.
There's no contour map to install.
Mapsource didn't have problem.

actually, if you are downloading for mapsource, you can choose which map tiles you want and then transfer/send to device. Normally, I will remove all the contours, polygons, east malaysia and thailand map tiles. Total size will be about 55 - 60 MB. I then transfer to my GMXT on my PDA. For my GMPC, I will leave out the contour map tiles and install the rest.

This is quite mysterious - MFM-Garmin-100517.exe. Some bros encounter problems with their Mapsource regardless of versions, and to some the latest maps work beautifully. I think we have to wait for Bro OngCC to solve this mystery

could it be the OS that causing it? I am using WinXP SP3 Home Edition with v6.15.7

I use MFM installer to get the full gmapsupp.img with a 86MB file-size. Copy this file to my Nuvi's mSD card. If you read thru' this thread you'll find some members face problems with their Mapsource crashing unless they install MFM-SRTM. I think our latest maps have a bug in there and Bro OngCC will be able to solve it

I also use WinXP SP3 Home Edition with v6.13.7. It's possible that the OS could be the culprit but then if you read thru' this thread, some members reported that the previous MFM Map was doing fine except for this week's version...
