is wm5 only capable of working with tomtom5.21? what about earlier versions? i cannot seem to get them working on mine (version 5.0/5.1).

To make Tomtom work on a WM5 Pocket PC you need to use version 5.21

Hi,
I don't have a Universal but have delt with this problem with the Blue Angel.
As long as you have version 5.20 you can install the software by inserting your TomTom CD/DVD and cancelling any autorun programs that load.

You then need to download the *ZIP* file from- http://www.tomtom.com/support/index.php?Language=1&query=5.21&FID=3361
Extract the ZIP and copy the setup.exe file to it's own directory, run it and it will load the setup on the CD/DVD with some extra compatability. Everything should install then.

On my Blue Angel I find the "TomTom" icon doesn't appear in my Programs list, although everything is installed. It's just a cause of creating a shortcut to "My Device/Navigator/Tom Tom Navigator"

Also, if that fails, there is another way of doing it...
