Cant connect to satellites. No satellites. Did I do something wrong? pics...

I cant connect to satellites. I have been driving a lot today and nothing, I went to a big open field and no satellites, nothing. Tell me if i did something wrong.

First i open the map:

Then it opens:

Then I press square to turn on gps:

Then I press start, set to 222mhz, and press GPS Info:

Then this screen comes on and stays like this (nothing changes).

Am I doing something wrong?

Assuming that you run correct (psp-290) version of mapThis, this could be due to following things:
1)bad psp-290 unit (check and see if mapplus iso is showing some satellites on gps info screen
2)bad connection with psp -make sure the contacts are clean and the nut is locked tight
3)you run a board that needs a usb patch (check faq for instructions)

i am just asking a few questions in case i get this problem too. but what do you mean by the mapplus iso and how do i know if my psp needs the usbpatch
