If it didn't mention the gnsdata file then it may have been a different problem, but then I don't know if the file might have been replaced when going back to 7.221.

Shaungw, there is an annoying bug that affects handsfree and causes weird hangs and reboots. May be worth trying the fix for that:

There doesn't seem to be much consistency in the unit whether it refers to streets and places with their Welsh names or the English equivalent.

Just a quick question. Are changes to IQ routes (i.e. the actual historical road speeds) downloaded with map corrections, or are they only updated when a new map is released? |

So what we have here is a long-term software problem that the user can work around using chkdsk /f, but may make the unit unusable for non tech-savvy users.
Does anyone have any contact details for ... |

Mine 'crashed' while TMC was connected and I was using the phone in handsfree, not sure what the file does but it was the same file on mine which corrupted perhaps more something to do with the TMC?

A quick update: I did the chkdsk as suggested and it found a duff file - /gps/gpspro (or gpsnpro or something of that ilk). I let chkdsk fix it, and all seems to be well on a few short trips. We'll ... |
