I know that previous requests have been detailed about this topic, but I'm a complete novice when it comes to computers.
I have unlocked my device, but get stuck when attempting to download GPS files such as Tom Tom. Also, I don;t know what DLL files are, and when i try to drag and drop content onto the Navman, it does not open unless the software?!? is launched first.
I guess I need somebody who can help give an idiot's step by step guide to getting my device to navigate me using latest maps and not dated 2005 maps.

Contact (I believe its Garmin for that model). I think you will have to buy another copy of their software. If your maps are more than a year old, they are due for an update anyways.
I had this problem when I completely deleted the Backup folder from \My Flash Disk.
Restoring the backup folder allowed the 520 to operate properly again.
It is possible that you have a corrupted APPStartupSec.exe application. Without this file working it appears that the NAVMAN waits in USB mode for ever!
1) it is a software problem, in this case you can solve it downloading and installing a firmware update. You can download latest software from here. This is most likely situation.
2) If the above did not work it means that you have an hardware problem, probably the touchscreen is slightly faulty, or the lcd ribbon cable is not well connected. In this case I suggest to take the navman to service.
You can unlock the iCN520 and install other GPS software on it. The
iCN520 can run virtually all the major GPS software available today;
from Tomtom to Miomap and beyond.

The CD is not available for download from Navman it seems, but you can get it at thepiratebay.com. Just search for 'navman icn' and you'll find what you need, I just did. Better learn how to download torrents though! :)
