More about device not working

I have searched for some information about my GPS device and think I got close to what I wanted to know with the thread 'medion gps device not working' but I can't find how to change the settings to try what is suggested.

I have a Medion PDNA 100 PDA and have acquired a card with TomTom 5 which shows all the mapping etc information you might expect but I'm getting a 'no gps device' message, as did absolutecooling who wrote to this forum on 1 September.

When I go to 'Settings' and then 'GPS' all I see is a status screen.

The GSP device works fine with the Navigator software that comes with the PDA. Have I bought a pup that won't work on my PDA? If not I would be eternally grateful if some kind person would talk me through the necessary steps in everyday language.

Tomtom Nav. 5 for the pda comes on 7 cds. If 'and have acquired a card with TomTom 5' means you only have a SD card with the software on then it is likely that it is a pirate version (unless you purchased the wrong one from Tomtom) and this forum will not assist you. The moderators are strict about discussing pirate software and will lock any thread that attempts to do so.

Unless it is a legal version purchased in error then I suggest you try to get you money back & buy a legitimate version.

No doubt the moderators will say the same when they see your post.

it was the use of the word 'aquired' (often used to suggest 'not purchased from a legitimate source') that prompted me to reply.

I'm sorry if I 'jumped the gun' with the warning & in hindsight my post could have been worded better.

I was not aware that the pda software came on SD card, thought it was only the GO software that did.
