    Got the same problem (have a tomtom XL). Using Tomtom home 2.4 have two computers, one runs windows XP, the other Vista. Get the same message on both OS when trying to run device from computer. It appears the OS doesn't make a difference.

    Same peoblem here! Using TomTom XL with Windows 2000 and HOME 2.5.2. This version also seems to have problems listing some content.

  • Anonymous Jan 07, 2009

    I ahve looked in C:Documents and SettingsApplication dataTomTomHOMEProfiles*****.defaultextensions, and there is NO Navcore directory

  • Anonymous Jan 10, 2009

    I cannot find any files within defaultextensions folder, so it looks like TT Home is not installing these properly (tried closing firewall etc while installing). How can I get my hands on these files and put them in the folder manually?

    The fault is exactly as described by others - new sat nav,one xl Europe 22 freezes when trying to use with PC running Vista. Tried to find TomTom Home 2 on TomTom.com as per advice- couldn't find (Currently running TomTom 2.5). Will there be any disavantages in running an earlier Home version.

    Regards and Thanks in anticipation

    I use a tomtom one v4 and tomtom home 2.5 and operate my device does not work under vista,

    With reference to your query relating to the 'operate my device' feature on
    TomTom HOME, firstly, my apologies in the delay in contacting you, the files
    needed to run this option are not yet available on TomTom HOME, we are
    currently working on this issue and will hopefully get this resolved as soon as
    possible.

  • Harrygsi May 11, 2010

    I did the same as 'crazy-carrot' after I tried a solution emailed to me by TT. It involved doing a back-up first. When all was reloaded to the TT it would not even switch on.



    John Lewis could not even resolve it so I swopped it for a Garmin!



    Problem solved..........but not as it should be. Seems to me it was launched before being properly tested!

I don't think Home 2.5.2 is the problem. The NavCore release may be. If you go to C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application Data\TomTom\HOME\Profiles\*****.default\extensions (fill in you own Windows user name and replace the stars by whatever number you find there.) You should see a NavCore directory containing the following files:

  • a dll-file with same version number as the NavCore directory
  • a chrome.manifest file
  • several data**.chk files
  • an install.rdf file
If any of these files are missing, you won't be able to operate the device from your PC. If the files are all there, it may help to shutdown Home completely and restart it. If that still doesn't help either, try to move all directories in C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application Data\TomTom\HOME\Profiles\*****.default\extensions except the one corresponding to the NavCore version on your device elsewhere.

If you're running Windows Vista, go to "tomtom.com/home" and download version 2 of home. According to the tech support guys at Tom Tom, this will correct the problem.

First try uninstalling the drivers and ALL THE SOFTWARE that came with it, THEN, go to the website and download the latest software and drivers and install them and try again. good luck. NOTE AFTER YOU UNINSTALL THE SOFTWARE MAKE SURE THAT YOU REBOOT EVERYTHING.

I am unable to connect my Samsung SGH 600 to my PC

sounds like you need to uninstall the software, reinstall it and then connect your phone.  If you are usng the front USB panels, try the back ones.  Sometime the front connectors are USB1 and are not fast enough.

Hello,

 

 

I guess that this could be your error message:

"Error message when you wake up a Windows XP-based computer from hibernation or from standby: "Power Surge on Hub Port: A USB Device has exceeded the power limits of its hub port"

 

If it is the case, please try below solution:

 

SYMPTOMS

 

When you wake up a Microsoft Windows XP-based computer from hibernation or from standby, you may receive the following error message:

 

Power Surge on Hub Port: A USB Device has exceeded the power limits of its hub port. This error message is displayed even if there are no USB devices connected to the computer.   WORKAROUND loadTOCNode(1, 'workaround'); To work around this issue, disable the USB 2.0-enhanced host controller.

Note When you disable the USB 2.0-enhanced host controller, you lose USB 2.0 functionality. That is, you revert to USB 1.1 functionality.

To disable the USB 2.0-enhanced host controller, follow these steps: 1. Right-click My Computer, and then click Manage. 2. Under Computer Management (Local), click Device Manager. 3. In the Device Manager pane, expand Universal Serial Bus controllers. 4. Right-click the USB 2.0-enhanced host controller, and then click Disable.

Note The name of the USB 2.0-enhanced host controller may vary. 5. When you receive the confirmation message, click Yes. 6.

Close Device Manager.

 

 

I hope that this should resolve the issue for you.

 

 

Please let me know the result. 

 

you can mail me at [email protected] for any further assistance on this issue.

 

I'll be glad to help you.

Belkin Parallel AutoSwitch F1U115E

Please advise of further info. All the connected PC's are running on XP. One is not connecting to the network. Sounds like the "Local Area Network" setting needs to be set for "Automatically assign an IP". Go to the start menu, select "Run" and type in "CMD". Type "IPCONFIG" and enter. This will display your network setting and IP address. If there is no IP address, then you will enever have a connection. If the IP address is listed, it will display a unique IP address, a subnet of 255.255.255.0 and the ip address of the gateway. Please respond with any further.
