Help Installing TT7

ran the file and got these. hope they help

37596KB is quite low for the total RAM available, Can you get to the Windows CE control panel?

is that on my headunit?

It might be, Is there an option to go to the Windows desktop? ie, with the start button/task bar.

I'm wanting to check the system memory division, There is a tool to change it, But to check it you need access to the control panel.

The manufacturer may have omitted the option to go to windows, (As they often do.)

i dont think it does. iv never seen an option like that

Extract and run this attachment on your device (Start.exe)

It sets the system memory division to 512KB storage and the rest as RAM, WinCE by default sets it halfway, so on a 64MB device you will get 32MB RAM, and 32MB temporary storage. Some applications including GPS apps can adjust this setting themselves, other apps like Tomtom do not.

The device information utility will run again, so record the free/total RAM displayed, and then post it here to compare to earlier.

Did you use the second utility i posted, as board statistics say it hasn't been downloaded yet..?

28020KB/37596KB -> 30040KB/41168KB

Although the memory has increased slightly, May be worth trying Tomtom again, If not we'll have a go at getting iGO Primo running.

the second utility as in the last download u posted? yeh i did, ran the start.exe and brung the sd card back in the hose and uploaded the data. is that right?

That's OK, It's just the board said it hadn't been downloaded, But it does now so it must be a bit slow.

This is off my Binatone B430...

32316 KB is more than enough to run Tomtom Navigator as it runs on my device fine, Obviously these devices having shared video memory would account for the lower available RAM on your device, There must be some issue in the WindowsCE core that Tomtom doesn't like, (3rd party driver maybe?)

Best bet now would be to try iGO 8/Primo, It runs on almost anything as it doesn't rely on anything within Windows unlike Tomtom does.

I would suggest this version

And these maps

Extract everything and locate the uk map from the map content pack, (.FBL extension) and place it in the Primo\Content\Map folder, Ignore the other files for now.

Locate the file sys.txt within the Primo folder, Open it with Notepad, Find the GPS settings section...

[gps]
Port=7
Baud=57600

Change it to...

[gps]
Port=2
Baud=9600

Save and then copy the Primo folder to the SD card and set your device to run the exefile within

i cannot find the gps section in the note pad bit lol. its not there

Just add it then

sorry havent been on for a while. the primo wont work properly. i cant enter a postcode. and it pops up an error message when i finally get the destination set

Postcodes go in the City box in this format AA11 1AA (Note the space)

What error message pops up?

i just cant find how to enter a postcode hahaha and the error message, out of memory. is there a version of tom tom 6 with speed cams and 7 digit post codes thats up to date with all the new roundabouts etc
