Which version of the speed cams did you download? Speed Zoned, Consolidated by Type or Single File? What are the names of the ov2 files on your TomTom?

Do each of the files have an icon with the EXACT same name?

i.e.

pocketgps_uk_gatso_uk2.ov2
pocketgps_uk_gatso_uk2.bmp

etc

From the file names you have detailed, it appears you have downloaded the 'consolidated by type' files. These will only show the camera icon and NOT the speed. For speed to be shown too, you need the 'speed zoned' files. There should be around 31 separate ov2 files with associated .bmp files to accompany them. You will need to set up warnings for each camera type.

Thanks for the help...the download options seem to have changed from the last time I downloaded them. Anyway I've just downloaded the speed zoned complete so I'll see how that goes!

Don't forget to delete the old ones before you install the speed-zoned set, or you'll get two warnings every time. Smile
