Hi all,

Ok my tom tom just got frozen on the start up screen, this all started when i tried to erase the contents of ephem folder in the TT to get the work around for the QuickGPSfix crap. Not sure what happened but it never recovered and now its not letting me format the device with FAT32 and running extremely slow in terms of transferring the files between the computer and the device.

Btw..using Windows 7
 
What exactly happens when you say 'it won't let you' format fat32?

Tried a chkdsk /f on it?
 
Ok ..full format went well...seems like i was using the wrong "thinner" phone cable rather the thicker TT cable. Restored all the folder back to TT using explorer...used Flash....then updated TT using HOME.and bingo....TT back to Life... :)
