I had a similar problem with a different make dvd duplicator and it is the placement of the disks that makes the difference, are the plastic guides that hold the stack of dvd's bent, try pushing the dvds to one side or another, there is always a mil of space.
Have you been able to get satellite connections (signals) when you're outdoors ? and not under/around tall buildings or overhanging obstructions. Regularly get QuickGPSfix update (using TomTom HOME) to download the latest satellite positions (for the next 7 days), to enable your GPS to find the satellites quicker.
The TomTom device needs to tune in on three or more GPS satelites to find your position. On start, it scans the hemisphere for any satelites and ten minutes and more are not uncommon to establish fixes on them.
The solution is a data package you can download from TomTom servers via the Home software, "QuickGPSFix". It holds precomputed satelite positions for the next few days which speeds up locking to satelites to a few seconds from minutes. However, you need to update the package roughly once a week or the initial delay will pop up again.
check in the tomtom settings which gps device you are using. i cant remember which typ mine used but you can check and try them all, also mine was on com4 but im not sure if this was standard. if you have the right settings, the with xda-developers.com for radio updates and driver updates. also update your quick gps
you need to update your tomtom with the latest GPSfix updates. This can be done by connecting your tomtom to a pc/laptop via usb and using the tomtom home software that came with your device or downloading it from the tomtom website
Have you hooked your GPS to an internet connected computer lately?
The TomTom home software that comes with the GPS will update so that it knows were the satalites are for the next week. It will also update the software to the latest verson.
You could also try inserting the end of a paperclip in the reset hole on the bottom of the GPS unit.
If all this fails contact TomTom. I have found them very helpfull.
