I've managed to download the files onto my computer, but I cannot work out how to transfer them from the computer onto the Tom Tom! Sorry, I know it's me that's being stupid but do I transfer all the files with .ov2 & .bmp file extensions & leave everything else?
Thank you, Twpsyn  |

Yes, copy the extracted (unzipped) .ov2 and .bmp files from your comuter into the same folder on your TomTom that contains your map. It shall be called something like "Uk & ROI" or "Western & Cental Europe", etc.
