Hello everyone, I've been a user of this forum for several years now! I haven't been here much lately... and I'm a bit out of date. I have a Tomtom IQ Routes with 64MB of RAM.

Hello everyone,

I recently acquired an old TomTom Rider v2 that has Navcore 7.540, bootloader 5.5012, and the WNRO issue so it won't acquire satellites. It came with the original 512MB SD card and it isn't large enough to hold the latest 1145 UK map so I'll need to buy a bigger card.

Some questions:

- Which Navcore should I update to? Is Navcore 9.500 (32MB) still the go to for older Rider devices?
- ...

Greetings,
There was a topic posted sometime ago that seems to have disappeared.

It was to do with getting the old XXL540 device that might be dead as in map updates but can still download new maps direct from TomTom using a particular tool or command, obviously one still needs to pay for yearly subscription to TomTom,

I used it once, it worked but now cant find it.

Does anyone here know what it's called ...
