I am going to try to engage Microsoft to get an answer to this question. This is the final component in my install and I need it to work. I did find something interesting tonight though. as I was driving along I tried to go into the settings menu, and it stopped me saying that this feature was not available while driving then gave me a driving speed. so the gps is functioning correctly. and street deck is getting the data of my travel speed. so my question is, is this part of mappoint or something built into streetdeck? it might be helpful knowledge to have when contacting M$.

p.s. the error message I am recieving is a bit different, it sounds that we have similiar problems and the same solution might work but just as a heads up my issue is as follows:
/edit actually after looking in the log we have the exact same problem:
Code:
INFO: CUVAppData::OnCreate - Navigation controller successfully initialized!
WARNING: CNAVController::InitializeMappoint_Help - NewMap - MapPoint North America can't run because it is not registered on your system, or it can't be found. Install MapPoint North America and try again.
WARNING: CNAVController::InitializeMappoint_Help - NewMap (Europe) - MapPoint Europe can't run because it is not registered on your system, or it can't be found. Install MapPoint Europe and try again.
I install the software from the ST DVD and everything goes fine on the install. then I fire up SD and when I click on navigation it says. "Failed to initialize navigation, is the navigation software installed" or something to that effect. Then if click start -> programs-> and look in there microsoft mappoint is not listed (not sure if it should be) but if I go to add/remove programs it is listed there.
