Hello (Just an update)

I have a 2001 BMW X5 which has a 4:3 sat nav screen in the dash with a
tape deck beside it. I had read that the newer widescreen type 16:9 is
just a plug and play conversion. I have bought a second hand screen
from a guy in Edinburgh who assures me was 100% working. After fitting
it into my car the menu screen just scrolls, fast and slow, making the
menu unreadable?

I have disconnected the sat nav cd driver and reconnected, tried
disconnecting battery for 5 mins and still no luck!

I ordered a the latest sat nav discs and the guy who i ordered then
from supplied a software download and then upload disc to the latest
software incase the unit (screen) and car were confused with 2
different software versions.

Hoping you have had similar issues and would be able to assist,
fingers are crossed.

Any advice would be great.

Much appreciated

Gavin
