major roads of europe not recognized by tomtom 5 in wm5

[marcusmodestus]

i've tried to select major roads of europe map, from tomtom, 5.1, 5.21, and nothing. I've seen the same map working in hp pda's brother in law, with wm2003se and TT5.21 update. I think the TomTom doesn't recognize this map under WM5.
Anyone tried, yet?
Give me some answers.

Regards
Marcus

Note: The problem is TT5.21 or even TT5.1(I didn't try less) don´t show in switch maps the refered map.

Hi
it strange that you still have the problem I use the Xda Exec that ha WM5 and I have no problem.
The directory of the map you have installed what is it called:
It no by any chance called:
Major Roads Of Europe. Because if it is it will never work on the Tom Tom Navigator 5 that is only for the Tom Tom Navigator 3.
You should have installed any map on the cd which has the word Plus at the end example
Great Britain Plus-Map
That cover all the normal road of Britain plus it covers the major roads or europe.
Hope you understand what I'm trying to say.

Hi,

I have the same problem, with Major Roads of Europe, Scandinavia and Gt Britain.

If I delete tomtom programe and re-install from my SD card TomTom installation, then I can select all maps, this installs version 5.0, if I upgrade to either 5.1 or 5.21 service packs, I can only select the GT Britain map when I try to swap maps in TomTom.

If anybody can help I would be grateful, as I can run my Checkpoint speed camera software on ver 5.0 only 5.1 or 5.21. Thanks :(

I have exactly the same problem, found out that only GB and Benelux map works with tomtom 5.21.

I am going to europe tomorrow (20/12) and urgently need help. Please, was anybody able to make this work?

If not, can anyone urgently share GB plus map for tomtom 5? I would do anything for you.

Thanks.

I have sorted it, downloaded the complete install including 6 CDs with all correct Maps from Bearshare P2P program, be warned this download is about 3.6gb, but Bearshare will happily download in the background, it took me 2 days to download but worth it. :twisted:
