Extract EXE file using Winrar or Winzip, etc. First, run "MAIN.MSI", then "SETUP.EXE". That should do the trick.
And after that, you need to install at least 1 Mapsource product such as: Free Malaysia & Singapore GPS Map

2. Double-click on the script (mapsource.reg) to run it. Click "Yes" when the dialog message appears
3. Download and double-click Garmin Mapsource to install
4. After installation, the message below will appear if you run Mapsource
Don't worry. It is alright. There is currently no map for Mapsource to open yet. Proceed to download and install MFM map.

You need to run Mapsource Registry Script above first. Another alternative method is to extract Mapsource installer with WinRAR or equivalent, then run MAIN.MSI and then SETUP.EXE, OR MSMAIN.MSI (later versions of Mapsource) to install.

Start Mapsource, connect Nuvi to PC, select Receive From Device (in Maposurce).
