TomTomGO Worked fine until connected to computer since which it has only shown picture of TomTom with red circle, white cross flashing and what appears to be a cd or something in right hand corner. Have carried out all the instructions on screen and just can't get anywhere. Tried reset button and no joy with that either. Can you help? It seems to be a common problem, looking at other peoples enquiries
Hello, The CD symbol in the corner is to show that the internal hard drive has a problem searching for or loading files. If your lucky your hard drive will be OK but somehow you have lost or corrupted data. If you made a backup copy of your hardrive sometime in the past then now might be a good time to reinstall that backup. If your'e unlucky then your hardrive is shot and the only answer will be to replace the drive. This can be done at reasonable cost by obtaining one from a defunct MP3 player or similar nano , Ipod type that has a suitable microdrive. Scrapper types of these can be found littering Ebay , but of course keep in mind the risk that these too could be damaged. Good luck , hope it all works out for you.
