Please have a read through THIS Page, it details both the data.chk and the newer ogg file format for spoken alerts. to be honest I would try putting the original data.chk back in place and use the ogg method
1/ you know exactly which voice is for the camera
2/ If or when TomTom bring out new software the ogg file warnings will remain in place whereas the data.chk file is replaced necessitating further work - Mike

ok have downloaded,renamed these *ogg files etc,nothing works tho so presume they are not the rite files for tt601.the link on the page that says :
VERSION 6+ UPDATES HERE just goes to a newsletter page with no download button,its says at the bottom:If you have previously used my real voice warning you can download the ogg files for Andy, *Liz and Vicki at the bottom of the Real voice warnings page here Use the 22050hz version.
thing is i havent used his voice thingy b4 so wtf is going on here.

Have you looked at the file extension of the ogg files you have re-named, as per the guide I linked to above, look for .ogg.ogg if you find this you have too many ogg extensions (which is a common error - blame microsoft for hiding the file extensions by default).

Which file set are you trying to use from Ray's site, Liz, Andy or someone else? - I am sure its not your device that prevents this from working, an overlooked minor detail is often the cause, PM me with the details if you wish - Mike

hi,have finally got it going,yaay.
i reinstalled tt and whilst doing that uninstalled a program called sktools which i had put on to demo,all the voices sprang into life and away i went tho i am hesitant to put sktools back on but need such a utility to keep the reg etc clean.
still none of it takes long now,had lts of practise Laughing Out Loud
