When you try to start a service (say, Windows Update) on your computer, you may receive error 1058. A description will also appear which is shown below: Error 1058: "The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it."
Reregister Windows Update Files
Uninstall Recent Updates

I can't see a title or web address anywhere. Can you re-post?

.. that just doesn't make sense as there is no option in Tom Tom home properties to 'run' xp sp2. Can you please elaborate?

In the desktop icon for Home, right click it and select properties-->compatibility tab. Choose to run as XP compatible.

DOH! I got it, you just need to go to c:\programs\tomtomhome2\ and click on it's properties. However, I still have the same problem. I'll try uninstalling everything and try again. Thanks for your help.

Also make sure you have at least dot net framework 3.5 from Miscrosoft installed on your computer. Get it here:

@krsone
Be sure also you do the same thing to the INSTALLER before you run it again, then do this to the application once it is installed.

Checking for any updates, I ran across this same error using Windows Vista. Go to the folder that contains the TomTom.exe Right click on properties and check the run as Windows XP and it worked.
