    Default Start 50M Europe Maps

    Hi,
    I've just bought a Start 50M in the USA with Navcore 9.510 and USA Map 915.5074.
    I'm now back in th UK and would like to change maps. So far i've tried Europe 915.5110, Europe West 920.5267 and Western Europe 920.5270 all with Fastactivate but TT says maps cannot be used on this device.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm afraid the reason can be read here

    Hi catymag,
    I don't think that's the reason. I have a Start 45M bought in the USA and i have added Europe Maps to it.
    Also the Start 50M uses TOMTOM HOME and can be seen via explorer as an external drive.

    Obviously these Start "**M" series devices cannot fall into the "can't be done" catagory as they use TTHome and use a v9 navcore
    So....you need to ensure you use a map for which we have a meta; see [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and then remember you need to activate the map AND patch the navcore with latest F/A buttons 2 & 3
