Just noticed a weird thing with my 530 sometimes it switches on automatically when not being used
this is the copy after running tt currentconfig

1. tt currentconfig will only show the active map on the CurrentMap & CurrentMapVersion lines.
2. What do you get if you boot without the card.

My bad!! I meant, What do you get if you boot without the card, in reference to "but i cant see UK map on second config".

Ok, so we can disregard the "but i cant see UK map on second config" issue & work on the AutoStart issue.

That indicates to me that there is a problem writing the watchdog file at shutdown,
do a hard reset followed by 3x the TT clear flash tool.
If still no joy try a clean install on an empty device.
