hehe..funny.. i am asking then i give the answer. After i google the answer, i get this:

1. don't double click the downloaded file (mapsource 6156)
2. Right click and extract it by using Winrar and choose "extract here"
3. look at extracted file. Dont click at setup first, but double click MSMAIN
4. Then, after finish run setup..done

I installed Mapsource Ver. 6.15.6

When I try to open a gpx file (tracklog converted using wNutrak), I get an error "C:\xxxxxx.gpx" could not be imported.

I read that gpx format can be opened with Mapsource.

Please help. Thanks.

Maybe something wrong with your converted GPX, why don't you upload it here for others to try?

Thanks bro dvpro, I tried opened the current.gpx and temp.gpx in my nuvi and no problem at all.
I guess you were right, it might be some error during the file conversion.
