I have win 8.1 x64 bits problem with device detection only tomtom home and card reader. I noticed that in the navigation is not available one option turn off and turn on bluetooth and I just guessed that here are advanced settings.

And what exactly you want? To update device navcore (which is almost 15 years old) via internet connection?
...
You must go old way. And find some older PC (with Win XP if possible)

Unfortunately asprin624 hasn't yet noticed that your device is a much older NAV2 model which cannot/does not use My Drive Connect so in this particular instance you need to ignore everything that's been posted by him (no offence aspirin as you're still a very helpful guy) as he''s referring to a totally different "GO520" which TT stupidly called the new device just to confuse everyone!
