What is there is correct, but what version of sygic drive are you using?

What skin are you using?

As long as you have entered the gps and path correct it will work, thats exactly what i use on mine.

Version 6 of PC Navigator does not support any window re-sizing, it is designed to run stand alone only. When Navigator 7 was released, a patch was released (following forum members requesting it, if I do recall) to allow the window to be re-sized correctly by RR.

Have never used map point I'm afraid. I would advise you to search for a program called Win Spector, which will allow you to get the program info to allow it to be embedded into RR correctly.

These are the details other members are using, unless I typed them in wrong, can anyone else confirm these settings are ok with Map Point?

MapPoint
Product Home Page:
http://www.microsoft.com/mappoint/pr...6/default.mspx
Embedding Details:
GPS Path:C:\Program Files\Microsoft Mappoint\Mappoint.exe
GPS Window Name: Mappoint

MapPoint 2009 Europe edition

Gps path : - X:\Program Files\Microsoft MapPoint Europe 2009\MapPoint.exe
Gps Windows Name - Map - Microsoft MapPoint Europe

Change the X to your drive

Not sure how the us version works, but the euro one opens in another window then loads into RR as well
