Ive downloaded my section of POI's but can someone please advice on how to add them.

If I click on the TomTom's internal memory it knocks me out after about 5 seconds. I cant browse the files etc like I could on my old TomTom's sd card.

I have a spare SD card, can I simply add them on that?

Thanks

UPDATE

It seems to be ok now. I thought TT had devised something to stop the browsing of the data but I can get in.

I dropped the POI's in the map file. i hope that is correct.

Yes thats right. All the ov2, ogg, and bmp files go into the map folder. (I presume you meant folder not file)

TomToms now have a folder called "map". Make sure you haven't put your POIs in that one. They need to be in the folder with the name of your map, eg "Western Europe"
