Can't update firmware on my 1412 Roadmate. None of the Windows XP computers will recognize it(tried on 4 PC's) None of the computers have SP3 on them and I disabled firewall and antivirus. When I follow the directions from the Megallan download site I keep getting "No Megellan 1412 NA found". Any suggestions?????

Try the reset button on the side above the plug in.

At the main Menu, touch right arrow, select "User Options"-->Region and select the desire region.
Good luck!

Hello,
I was looking for a USB cable to use to update the firmware and did not see any particular specifications for the usb cable. I decided to
use the USB cable that I purchased for my motorola v3 along with the phone tools software. When I plugged it in the 1412 sat on a screen waiting for the PC application for updating maps or software which I had not installed yet. I found that the 1412 was actually taking a charge from the motorola phone tools kit. ALSO with a few repeated attempts on my XP PC I was able to access the files on the 1412 from 2 drives that it set up on my PC just like a USB stick. One drive was a virtual CD drive and the other was just like a
usb flash drive. So I backed up the software to my PC. I have not done any hacking yet but I bet there are some ways to do this.
