"Can I preserve my Favorites when upgrading?":
Most of us love favorites. Tomtom has a flawed system for storing them which makes preserving when upgrading impossible.

Might I also suggest taking a look at the link at the bottom of this post.
Saving the "mapsettings.cfg" file also saves POI information as well as favourites.

"Can I capture my TT screen?": Sure, follow me (tip from yDdraigGoch).
1. create a directory "screen" in the root of your TT
2. in screen\, create an empty file "capture" (no extention!)
3. start your TT
4. capture by tapping the upper-left corner (notice the camera sound)
5. the screen-captures are stored in screen\

May I also suggest,
6. To temporarily disable the screen capture setting, just slightly re-name the "Screen" folder (maybe to "1 Screen") without the quotes.

The re-booting problem may also be due to the same problem described at the bottom of the first post in the following thread.
