Home not installing LMG map

Hi
Home manages to download the latest WE map, but then it starts to copy the file to my 740, I get an error saying that the archive file is an invalid location (C:\windows\documents and settings\my documents\tomtom\downloads\maps\...... - or something like that as its from memory!)
If I look in the location, there is a zipped up file of what seems to be the right size, but home clearly doesn't like the location!

Any thoughts?

Cheers

Dazz

You could maybe try changing the download location in Home's preferences? (Tools menu/Preferences/Folder preferences).

I have sorted the problem thanks to a load of information on a different thread of this forum. It turms out that the crpoi.dat file in the downloaded .zip folder was corrupted and so deleting this allowed all to be installed without a hitch. Whilst not having that file means I dont have deeper details on some POIs, I think I can live with that, as it's not really a feature that I can see me really using.
Thanks to all on the other thread.

Had a frustrating day with LMG and my new 940 Live.

With the LMG I was entitled to both North America and Europe. I waited while it downloaded the American map (2hours) only for it to fall over with a Forbidden error when it tried to start the Europe download. I therefore restarted and two hours later it did the same thing.

I then got it to only download the Europe map.. that took 3 and a half hours only for Home to tell me there wasnt enough room on the C drive for temporary files!!!

I have cleared the drive and am now downloading it again.

I wish Home would remember what it had downloaded and not always go back to the beginning!
