Last week having successfully updated my Go720, I decided to try the same with an old Go 700.
I backed up the old working system and then deleted the contents of the hard drive then I loaded the new 8412 Navcore and a 875.3613 map.
All seemed to be well and initially I had a fault because Fast Activate couldnt find the .bif file. I rebooted the device and was then able to open the hard drive. On using Fast Activate the first two actions patched OK but on the third action pressing the TomTom System/PND Navigator button the TomTom instantly shut down and I havent been able to either boot it up or get it to connect to the computer since.
Pressing the device on switch produces a click on the speaker with a momentary green light and the system then goes off instantly requiring a reset which repeats what I have described previously.
I have disconnected the TomTom from the computer and connected it to mains charger, made no difference. I have tried holding the reset button down for 30 seconds, no good.
I cannot now get into the device to clear the hard drive and re-install the old system !.
Any suggestions please ?.
