Installing the V5 upgrade to a ppc

Hi

I have TT3 on my SPV M1000 and have purchased V5 upgrade. The instructions told me to delete the maps on my storage card, so I did.

I then installed the upgrade and then went on line and installed the 5.2 update.

I now find I have no maps.

I then find another instruction leaflet in the upgrade kit and that says to install maps from one of the 6 map cds that came with the upgrade. It doesn't say which one for GB but logic says to start with disc 1 so I do.

I am now getting a message that says there is not enough space in the temporary folder to run Setup and so setup is aborted. I have tried turning off my ppc and my pc (not sure of the location of the temporary folder) but I still get the message.

Perhaps I should add that the update software instructions told me to install the application to the storage card. I was surprised at this but did as I was told. Mistake?

Liz

Liz, also watch for the install postcode check box when you install the map, otherwise it won't work (postcodes that is), also if you have any celeb voices you want to use with it add a folder called voices into the root of the SD card and put any additional voices into it. Use an SD card reader to load the map or will take ages via active sync - Cheers Mike

Many many thanks everyone. I don't think I could have got this upgrade to work without all the help from this forum. I have also used to help on getting full postcodes to work by putting in the empty folder. So thanks also for that.

One last question. I am offered 3 sets of maps for Great Britain

Great Britain Plus
Great Britain and
Postcodes.

I have installed Great Britain Plus and Postcodes. What is the other one for? Should I install that as well?

TIA

Liz

Liz,

Great that you are up and running again. To answer your question, NO you do not need the Great Britain map if you have Great Britain Plus installed.

The difference is that the Great Britain Plus map contains exactly the same as the Great Britain Map plus all the major roads of europe. This means you can plan a trip fron your home address in the UK to virtually any major road in Europe without changing your map. If when you get near the destination in Europe you want, then you can change the map to the more detailed road map of that area.

Hope that makes sense.

Alan
