Upgrade to the Z3 with maps, unlock etc.... Garrett has it relatively cheap and all you have to do is screw it in! :D

I guess then that you do not have the official (=bought) DVD version.....

The only way you can update to Z3 by DVD is buy the official version, and generate a custom password for your specific Z1 and DVD....

 

Only other options are to either unlock your HD and put the software on directly, or buy a new pre-installed harddisk from garrettoomey

They didn't charge for mine, I just followed the instructions w/ the number to call from the pioneer site. Or try using a friends PC to burn it

Are you sure ??? Yes, Gracenote is free. The firmware update Z1 > Z3 is not....

The firmware update fixes freezing problems and is free.

The upgrade disk to turn your Z1->Z3 costs $120

Yep, I assumed he meant this latter upgrade.... If not, my mistake :wink:
