OT - TomTom Files
Can anyone here help me with my new Tom Tom Go 300? Mine just arrived and
the system files are corrupt. Talking the the technical support people is like talking to a 3 year old. I know what I need, they know what I need, but their 'new' Home2 software doesn't work on my PC, so I can't update the TomTom myself. They won't email me the system files and without non-corrupt files, the device just freezes on startup! After a week of trying, they are now not responding to my posts on the support forum. Can anyone out there email me the system files for the root folder of the device? I think the 2 files that are corrupt are "System" and "TTSystem", which are 0.5MB and 3.5MB respectively. I have googled for these files until I am blue in the face, but can't find them anywhere. Ta, GT |

The hardware works OK - its just the software on the SD card. God knows why they don't have a 'download software now' option on their website! I suppose that would just be too easy! I bought it to guide me to a training course I'm running in Cathcart in a couple of weeks- anywhere near your neck of the woods? |
