Thanks - have tried all that -

Can you point me to where I the driver download page is for Tom Tom?

@enigma
Your TomTom 330 looks like an external storage device to your PC, just like a thumb drive or other similar device. The driver necessary to see the content of your device should already come resident on your PC. When you connect your unit to your PC, can you see all of its contents with Explorer as you would any other external drive? If so, that's at least a start.
I'm also curious -- what does "EST" mean?

As I tried to explain, the problem seemed to be with the DRIVER, not the Device. I un-installed the driver and application. Re-installed both and that took care of the problem. The Tom Tom is the XL330S, (sorry for the confusion). I was able to install over an hour of U.S. updates successfully - thank you. My Tom Tom is rather old, but still going strong. Any major disadvantages in continuing to use this older device?

At least for a Windows machine or a Mac, there is no special "driver" for a TomTom. They look like any other external storage device (like a thumb drive, called USB class Mass Storage Device). Sounds like the only problem was the TomTom Home application itself. Not our favorite program around here! Glad you got it sorted.

None at all providing it has the features that you need in a GPS. Depending upon why you like your 330, you may well find that 'current' models are missing those features!
