Copy the desired map folder to the card. Put a copy of FastActivate.exe & a copy of the Rider's ttgo.bif file in the map folder on the card. Run option 2. Done!

1 caveat. If the map is large enuf to require a SDHC 4GB card, then the Rider's bootloader must be 5.5012 or higher to accept the card..

OMG Thank you som much i have searched for this answer for hours !
Some guys said that the TomTom device would make a new ttgo.bif file on the SD-Card by just rebooting the device, that didnt happen :D.
Who could imagine that the solution would be this easy !

Thanks again :003:

A new ttgo.bif file is created EVERYTIME the device is booted. It is copied to wherever the navcore is located.
