|
|
Dear All
Grateful for any advise on this subject please.
I have been running tomtom3 on my ipaq3970 with no problems until today.
Whenever I start tomtom I get the following message.
Fatal Application Error
Application tomtom Navigator.exe has performed and illegal operation and will be shut down.
Program Tomtom
Navigator.exe
Exception 0xc0000005
Address 0110b18
I am totally stumped , I have not changed anything and was using it fine last night.. It can't be something to do with been the 1st of a New Year can it ?
Any help much appreciated, as I do not know where to start at the moment.
Thank you & the best for the New Year

There is a "TomTom Navigator Settings" folder in your "My Documents" folder.
Do a back up of these files, then delete great_britain.pnaNavigatorSettings.cfg and Navigator GlobalSettings.cfg
Soft reset then start Tomtom again.
Tomtom should recreate the files when you next start and should get you going again. |

Help!!
I'm also getting this error, but at a different address. I tried your fix, but to no avail. Here's the text:
Exception: 0xc0000005
Address: 00a8aaac
Any ideas? |

I had a similar problem recently cannot remember the full error message. After a lot of trial and error I found it only occured using maps to which I had added the Tesco and Asda POI files. Removing them solved the problem but I dont know why. Was it a lack of memory caused by the new POI's. Perhapse someone can explain |

I saw a thread where people had experienced problems with the french campsite POI files so I deleted them. It could be coincidence but it seemed to sort itself out after that.
Thanks for the tip though - if I get another problem I'll delete the Tesco file and see what happens. |

A lot of the fatal exeption errors I have had have been down to corrupt bitmaps for POI. Deleting the POI has correted the problem. _________________ Mio P550 Mio 3 TTN 6 2GB SD Card, Ipaq 5450: Integral 1Gb SD card, TTN 6, POICapture, PPC 2003 |
