Hi all,
As per the previous poster, Tomil, I downloaded the camera database and copied the files to my GO700. So far, so good. All the necessary ov and bmp files showed up as being copied.
However, when I now switch the GO700 on it says ......."loading route" (or something similar) and then stops at 50% (loaded) and hangs. Nothing more - zilch - can't do anything with it. Connect it to my computer again and remove the files and it works OK again.
I've tried loading just a couple of the files instead in case of a corrupted file but still won't load ..... gets to 50% and hangs again.
Any ideas?
On a second point ....... if I do manage to get these loaded is the databse for France comprehensive?
Many thanks for any pearls of wisdom.

I have the pocket gps continental cameras loaded in the France folder and also the ones from here:http://www.alertegps.com/Download.asp?a=ar&s=&f=tomtom
I drove down to Geneva from Boulogne with a lot of diversions and it seemed to pick them all up. Well, I didn't notice any that I didn't get a warning for and never saw a flash or got a ticket sent to me. _________________ TTGO 700 (dead)

Don't forget to update them frequently!! Pocket GPS ones are upgraded at the beginning of each month. Not sure about the French site. _________________ TTGO 700 (dead)

Do the poi's from alertgps.com duplicate the continental cameras from pocketgpsworld and should I therefore remove the gpsworld continental poi's before loading the alertgps poi? |

I use both to be on the safe side. It won't hurt. All that will happen is that you might get a double warning if both databases have the same camera. _________________ TTGO 700 (dead)
