SWIMBO has just rescued this device from the rubbish bin and sat me down with a stiff drink , now waiting for my blood pressure to return to normal.We have a Start 25 with full European maps and it has performed faultlessly all over the UK, France, Spain and Portugal.Then fell foul of the 'your device needs map update.
Ok,go onto mydrive,click update,new map downloads onto laptop goes to 1% download to device then says device not connected, reconnect device,30 seconds later device not connected, many attempts later and device will not stay connected to computer. Been through all the tomtom help sites etc and got nowhere.
Have tried a new lead,removed firewall etc,no go.Now l have a satnav that turns on just to tell me No maps found and does nothing else.All a bit long winded l know but can anyone who's a bit more tech savvy than me help Please, before l take a hammer to the bl**dy thing.
Cheers Bob.
