Just try a simple reset with a paper clip in the reset hole on the underside of the device, you won't lose any settings doing this and it often cures the problem - Mike
Thanks Mike, that seems to h ... |

For some strange reason my new computer is failing to recognise my TT 520 Go when I plug it in. The same is happening on both my new computers, even after doing a clean install of the OS, so I have to ... |

I don't recall ever getting a "re-calculating" message while driving with a TomTom device, this warning annoys me with the Garmin units and I would have tried to disable it on the TomTom if it ever di ... |

That's very interesting. Can you check to make sure it does tell you it's re-calculating. What's displayed on the screen makes no difference to me because I like to drive without taking my eyes off th ... |

So what I'm looking for is a GPS that will let you know when you've deviated from the route you were on, rerouting you only if you choose to ignore the warning. From what you say it would seem that Ga ... |

Well so far I have only been comparing the Garmin Nuvi 200 with the Tom Tom Go 520. I only need UK maps and have to keep the cost down to preferably less than £200. As for some of the features, the FM ... |

Thanks for your replies. From my experience using a cheap GPS I found that rerouting can lead you miles and miles out the way before getting you back on course. So what I'm looking for is a GPS that w ... |

No I'm not going to ask you which is best
What I would like to know is if either Garmin or Tom Tom let you know when you make a wrong turn before rerouting you. Something like the Navman which ... |

Thanks, I was hoping to get a Garmin as the reviews say their more reliable. However, although I try not to exceed any speed limits, it would be nice to have this feature. |

One point worth investigating if you do decide to get a single unit is the battery life.
Some car units only have a 2 hour life which would be unsuitable for a long country walk.
Good point. Alt ... |

Thanks Mike. From what your saying, I would be better off with individual units each dedicated to it's own task. I just thought it might be possible to simply switch cards to do whichever task I Wante ... |

Hi, I'm totally ignorant when it comes to GPS. As a result I dare say I'm hoping to find the impossible. What I would like is a GPS that works both when driving and for when I'm walking, or is it abso ... |
