It happened to me as well, all you need to do is eject your GPS SD card.
you will then see a custom red/black Windows CE interface.
Scroll left and right until you see a GPS icon and then click on it.
Then click "reset GPS" wait for the bar to complete (about 6 seconds)
re-insert the GPS card and re-launch the GPS program.
It should work, but if it doesn't then just pull out the car key then plug it back in and turn half way(Or you can start the car) then the GPS should work again.
Next time (in case you upgade your iGO8 again in the future), you can have iGO autoscan for your GPS antenna in the menu/settings/gps screen.
Touch the bar where it shows the GPS as undetected and it will unlock the settings so that you can configure port and baud. At the bottom right will be a selector for autoscan. ~30sec later and you'll be in business without having to manually hack your sys.txt file.
Question to KV12, or anyone else running IGO8.3.7XXXX. I have this version up and running, my issue is, I can't get GPS detected. I tried KV12's suggestion above, but still nothing. In the GPS settings menu in IGO, it shows GPS not detected. In WINCE gui, it seems to detect my GPS, and will show my signal and coordinates.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there a mod in sys file I could use to specify? Could someone let me know which port and Baud rate they are using with success?
*****UPDATE*****
Well, it seems I have answered my own question. I used a modded sys file I found (stating GPS settings) on a gps forum, and low and behold, it seems to have corrected this error. I kept this post in case anyone else runs into this error.
Also, thanks KV12 for your day/night theme mods, they are much easier to view.
Where did you order yours from for that price?Just ordered mine, 450 shipped. Can we get a how too on how to change skins and update igo to 8.3 with 3d maps?
