Default iGO8 importing track logs help

Hi everyone...

Was given a StreetKing CG-501 GPS for christmas running iGo8 for the navigation.

Im having trouble importing tracks to the iGO8. The iGO8 folder is on the SD Card but cannot open it to add tracks with the GPS plugged in via USB or with the SD Card in a card reader. Get a error message telling me that its not found or accessible even though the folder is there and Navigation runs fine.

I can export my recorded track logs fine they appear in .gpx format in a seperate "Tracks" folder outside of the iGO8 folder and are accessible. Adding new tracks such as ones downloaded from this site into the same folder dont appear when running the Navigation.

Anyone else run into problems or have a clue what I am doing wrong??

Thanks in advance!

Sounds like the card is formatted to Wndows

Im running windows 7 64 bit...... From what I know it runs on a Windows CE platform in the GPS.

Im scratching my head as to why every other folder and file on the same SD Card will open and I just cant get into the iGO8 folder itself....

Any solutions?

When I plug the GPS into the PC it detects 2 seperate removable drives at once. One has the iGO8 folder, Tracks, copy of the manual in .pdf etc etc.... the other removable drive displays .bin files.

I tried selecting all the folders and making a backup copy on the desktop and it wont let me do that!!
