    As far as MS v MI i will play and see if I find any differences.

    Now you try this . Put all of the USA on any some of Canada on a 4gb cf card. the file size should be around 2,040,000,000b according to MS or MI. Put it in your goldwing and see if it works. Do an address find,if the address find works than the mapset is fine. If not reduce it to 2.03gb Now try putting that same img on your 2gb CF. Surprise surprise it wont fit. If you use a 4gb CF card you can load a mapset that is about 200 to 300mb larger than if it is on a 2gb card.

    It seems that the goldwings that use the CF card can actually read a 2,040,000,000 b file and read a card as larger as 32gb.
    Now it would be nice if Garmin would update the FW to read larger file sizes.
