    Default Cannot see root folder or SD card on my PC---TomTom Via 1500

    Lo all.

    I just get a TomTom Via 1500 navigation, but when i connect it to a PC, my PC install some drivers, and i cannot see root folder od SD card folder in my windows explorer.
    I even registred to MyTomTom, and there only i see my map installed "USA, Canada & Mexico Version: v8.65 Active on your device".

    How can i delete this map and install a new one which i'm downloading from this board?

    Thanks in advance...

    I even downloaded fastactivator.exe, but when i started it it says: TomTom HOME Profile DLL not found...

    I just found some threads here telling the same thing... Thank you to m8...

    So, there's no chance to upgrade my maps in any way? Can i format whole navi, and install garmin or anything like that on this device?

    Nope, ain't going to happen (apart from actually buying a new map of course).
    Any chance of getting your money back or selling it on then buying an x40/x50 device?

    Not sure on that model BUT if it has Live Services (and is a USA model) then they won't work in Europe either!
