After installing the specified version ... I run it and it would not work until I updated to the latest.
After that its just telling me that it can not find the phone.
And it wants me to put it in PC Suite Mode.

For the guys trying with Win7: have you tried to enable XP compatibility mode? If I remember correctly you'd need to right click on the mapload application icon and (under properties / compatibility) check and enable "run this program in compatibility mode for Win XP".
Somebody try and report back?

Well bunanson, your fine step by step did not work for me.
Could it really be because I am using Vista 32-bit?

I can hereby confirm that Nokia Map Loader works with the N900 using Windows XP 32-bit. And that it does not work when using Windows Vista 32-bit.
I can also confirm that bunanson step by step guide is correct.
The Nokia Map Loader can be downloaded here:
http://europe.nokia.com/support/prod...d#/nokia-n900/
Also, there is no need to have installed or install Ovi Suite or PC Suite. The Nokia Map Loader will be sufficient.

For those that don't have access to a computer booting Windows, I managed to make it work (or at least to make it seem to work) in XP 64-bit under QEMU.
I have to say that I did not finish the download (it was taking too long and I had to vacate the computer), and I ended up downloading the maps in a Windows computer at work, so YMMV. But I see no reason for it not to work. :-)

I can confirm that bunason step by step guide is correct and Ulrik's post - YES, it will work on a XP machine, Service pack 2 machine. PC Suite is not required. I used an old Dell laptop with XP home edition, put SP2 with .NET. Loaded Nokia Map Loader fine and all steps work. I suspect it is due to the XP SP2 OS
It does NOT work on a MacBook running Windows 7 Ultimate, 32-bit even if you use the compatibility set to XP Service Pack 2 for the Nokia Maps Loader.
Hope this helps.....
