Have you "unzipped" the archive file you downloaded to produce the individual files you need? You do that by right clicking on the file you downloaded and selecting "extract all". This should produce about 15 files, of which you need the 12 shown below.

Have you copied (with Windows Explorer) both the .ov2 datafile and the .bmp icon file for each type into the map folder?
If you view the contents of the folder with Windows Explorer do you see ALL these files:

pocketgps_uk_gatso.bmp
pocketgps_uk_gatso.ov2
pocketgps_uk_mobile.bmp
pocketgps_uk_mobile.ov2
pocketgps_uk_pmobile.bmp
pocketgps_uk_pmobile.ov2
pocketgps_uk_redlight.bmp
pocketgps_uk_redlight.ov2
pocketgps_uk_specs.bmp
pocketgps_uk_specs.ov2
pocketgps_uk_temp.bmp
pocketgps_uk_temp.ov2

(If you cannot see the bit after the dot on each file name, you need to switch on the correct view in the Tools menu/Folder options/View tab. - UN-TICK "hide extensions for known file types")

DO NOT do any of this investigation using TomTom's "Home" utility.

While you are there, count up the TOTAL number of .ov2 files. I can't believe you have gone over the limit for a 920 (around 300, but the limit can be much lower on other models).

If the files are all present and correct, I'll have another think....

Please don't post the same question in multiple forums. It results in diluted responses. I have locked this thread, please see your other duplicate thread for further replies.
