Although I have little knowledge of the company, I did read the numerous complaints online which is never a good thing, and love the fact they measure customer satisfaction in the 99.8 or 99.9% range. ...

Cheers Dennis.

Going to go back to basics and install navcore 8.351 onto the SD card and see if I can get her booting.

Interestingly, the actual G drive (which is the TT hdd) will not even let m ...

A friend has given me an old 720 that stopped working. He had it given to him. It basically would not boot up. It would not connect to a computer unless I got lucky and when it did, it sho ...

Using the USB connector, when you plug the connector into the unit, wiggle, gently, this and see if you can see the female socket (the part in the unit) move at all. There's a good chance that the co ...

Ok, only fair to update this when people have been helpful.

Taking unit apart and nothing was obvious. Googling seemed to indicate the power button was stuck down but actual button was fine and ga ...

Thanks David.

That would make sense, but when you reset the unit it does come on again automatically. However, when I took it apart, the power microswitch was fine - or seemed to be, with a distin ...

Think it could be the power button stuck down - but internally. A reset turns it off. Power turns it on BUT it does not get seen by the computer so you cannot connect. Suspect may have to take it a ...

It never rains...

Anyone ever seen this on a TT720? I wonder if it means the battery is knackered and thus despite being on power cannot run. A reset then pushing start button fires it up, plays ...

Fair call - only I'm trying to erase everything, format then reinstall from Home with fresh new files. Even then it's still creating some restarting issues...

I've also renamed my download folder ...

I am not familiar with the device but on other devices a corrupt mapsettings.cfg file can do this. Try and delete this file from the map folder, it stores settings and favourites and will recreate its ...

Thanks Andy - but done all that.

In effect, I think the next stage has ot be rebuilding it from scratch but without a map at the moment as I wonder if that is creating some conflict?

Can anyone ...

That's what I did. Sorry for not explaining. It was a full format of the disk, FAT 32, not using quickformat.

Just tried restoring backup and the same. It boots, the yellow bar goes ...
