Thread: WinCE on Jensen

Perhaps every question that could be asked may have already been asked, but finding that finding, filtering, sorting and dating all those posts can be daunting. I can understand when someone asks repeated questions over and over, that you want to minimize this; however, my questions were not so obvious and quite difficult to find answers for. Even your post still did not answer all of them, although it did answer one of them after reading it very carefully. This stuff may be really obvious to you as the moderator, you've seen the same questions over many years; as a newcomer, I would rather not spend weeks looking through posts from 2017-2020 to find data that may or may not be up to date, when someone can quickly give a simple answer to get my unit working in a day or two.

I'm very familiar with technology, I'm an MCSE and a CCNA, but this stuff is new to me. I used to build BBS systems in the '90's for small business. I didn't know what NaviExtra's or iGo meant, I had not heard of them (I had heard of TomTom). So, yes, I'm ignorant in terms of GPS mapping software. That said, I don't need a guide for folders, it's obvious and an idiot can figure that much out. Much of it is simple now, but some questions remain that I found were NOT answered or were not Obvious in previous posts. So, I beg for a bit of patience and try to be lenient on those that want a solution in a day or two rather than spend weeks reading through each and every post here.

You did answer a critical question. What version will work with my unit(?): and your answer was the Honda WinCE version. Great! Thank you. That wasn't obvious, but I know now; although may take some configuring to get it working. Who would have thought a Honda mapping version will work with generic models. Many of your links post exclusively to Europe, which is completely useless to me in Canada. And you haven't addressed the license file issue. There are literally hundreds if not thousands of license files with no guide to make it simple (or to explain that I may not need one). I downloaded a licence viewer, and that is what told me I was using TomTom maps, otherwise, I see no other way to identify them as TomTom Maps. Unfortunately, the license viewer does not help me to correctly identify what license I can install for unlimited updates.

Perhaps if you really want to dissuade new users from posting questions, then make a comprehensive instruction document that encompasses what you know about each system. Your links are helpful, but only go so far, and are not quite comprehensive.

It's unfortunate the WinCE emulator doesn't run them properly, and that is of interest to me to find a way. Operating systems are my speciality, but WinCE is very very limited.

Hello
There are many CE emulators, including a Russian version that can handle iGO Primo 2.4. Here is the simplest version that works. The resolution and the memory of the storage card (must be created beforehand) can easily be changed in the "PNAEmulator_Start .bat".
Copy iGO Primo into the created folder and start the "Primo.exe".
Of course, it should be a "healed" version.

Hello
@butterfinger had problems getting Primo 2.4 to work on an emulator. Hence my hint.
You're right of course, emulator is the wrong term, although there are several versions of that too. (1-3)
I meant the images running on it, of course.
And the only image I know on which Primo 2.4 starts at all is the one mentioned above.
