I have changed my data.chk file will all the sounds be on my cameras now or do i drag and drop the wave files into my GB folder as i see that some of the sounds are different from the sounds that i downloaded from the data.chk file.

Is it possible to get the original data.chk sounds back once you have changed them. Also can i leave my old camera files on my card aswell as the new ones.

1. TTG can't play .WAV files so there would be no point in copying them over.

2. If you didn't delete your old data.chk file you can copy the original file over the new. If you deleted it, and you previously copied your whole SD card to the PC, you could copy it from there.

3. The Zoned cameras are duplicates of the old cameras, just organised into a seperate speed ratings. If you keep both, the map might get rather cluttered and the number of POI's might exceed the limit of 40.

I didn't know this! That's why I get "GATSO 30... GATSO" coming up - there are two waypoints on the same spot. So I can safely delete which POIs?

Did you copy from SD to PC after you changed to the new sounds?

If yes you will have to re-install TTG! Are you still using the 128MB card or have you upgraded? If you have upgraded, and you haven't wiped the 128 card clean, the Data.chk file will be on there. Just swap cards back copy data.chk to PC, put new SD in again, and copy from PC to new SD.

Rememeber to switch off TTG when changing cards.

Either the main, large, Gatso file or all of the speed marked files, including the TBA file. It depends how many POI's you want (need) now or in the future as there is a limit.

Be careful. You can't just copy the file from the CD, it's compressed. Only TTG setup can decompress it!
