You should use the installer program that came with your TomTom CDs. This will install the maps into the right place, the root of the storage card.

Matt, we are thinking that you have an illegal copy of TomTom Navigator. If it is the case you will not find any help here.

Matt

did you get a product code and the set of CDs with it? If not it aint legal no matter what the seller said. Suggest you contact the seller and insist on your money back - you can always threaten to report them to ebay for selling illegal software.

But as the others said you won't get any help with illegal software on this site.

The daft thing is that for not a lot more you could have bought the proper product.

We are such an understanding lot. Hope your batter forum has batter cameras too, and maybe a virus or two?
