4. Connect N900 in PC Suite mode
5. Look to \My Computer\N900 (PC-Suite Mode)\Data dir (see you file qf?)
6. Run Map Loader
Worked for me with Win7. Thanks gLobster

Thanks again - this was the perfect tip for me
Tough I decided for N900 because it's the best HARDware Nokia ever build (IMO, and still even better Hardware than OS - thinking of lack of IRDA, FM-Tuner or Frontcamera support), I'm a absoulutely Linux-noob

There WAS already a .qf file at "myN900\cities\diskcache" (created 2009-09-08, three months before I got my N900, 239 Bytes), now there's a second one directly at "myN900", created yesterday, 217 Bytes.

To complete the story:
- my system runs Win XP SP3
- Maploader 3.0.24.0 (Maploader still gives no advice for Update, and I didn't want to reinstall)
- PC Suite 7.1.40.1
- I had to connect in PC-Suite-Mode (didn't start PC-Suite) to install new maps.

Only limitation - there is not enough space to install maps of the whole world (about 200 MB missing) and I couldn't figure out how to change the directory to my SD-Card.
