1. Copy ENG_FastActivate_02.10.2010_Premium_edition_v1.7 onto the card & run it.

2. Main Menu, Change preferences, Switch maps, Switch map & select the map you want.

You are Welcome.
THANK YOU for the donation!!!

You should not have needed a navcore on the card. FYI a card, with a navcore on it, becomes the default memory. With the card installed, your 930 will boot from the card, not the internal.

You can click the Thanks button in the lower left corner of each post, that you find to be helpful. Our Mods appreciate it. No, I'm not hinting/suggesting that you do it for my posts.

test it by preparing a route and run it demo mode make sure its ok

yes i've ran a demo mode and that seems fine. i'd prefer a flight to try out properley tho ;)

one problem i have is if i leave the sd card in the the tt and connect to computer, the pc will crash. take the card out and it'll be fine.
i haven't installed tt home on thie pc, should i do that, and will it require patching?

I went to copy/replace the mapsettings.cfg file from my back up to the new map and now the tt will not turn on. if i plug in the pc, it says usb device not recognised and no driver was found for the device.
what can i do to get this recognized and working again. help!!!!!!

just needed a reset. doh!!

1. Yes, if you want mapsharing & quickgpsfix updates.
2. Yes, if you want to use the "Operate my device" feature.

i've tried tt home following the examples here but when i get to
'operate my device' picture, it doesn't ask for a new file to dload, i get error messages about an invalid purchase etc
then, instead of the black tt screen with icon shown, i get a picture of w&ce map screen with 'you cannot use these maps' message
i exit tt home thru the system tray, go to patch home and then get a final message of 'correct tomtom home .dll is missing for your device'
