A suggestion for an addition to this page:

Please put in details of how to get MapSource to install at all! I tried 
to install 6.16.3 on my Vista box, but all I got was a message "Previous 
MapSource not found! Setup will terminate".

Which it did! Leaving me with no MapSource. I'm eager to have a play 
with it in order to get the address-search stuff working (and maybe to 
find out how to do that independently) but obviously I need a usable 
MapSource in the first place.

Any ideas please?
