Hi, Bought one on ebay but doesn't have the installation software CD, does anyone have one they could back-up for me?
Much appreciated!

As long as it's working, I'm not sure you need it. IIRC, all you need to do is copy and paste the entire contents of the TomTom onto your PC (remember to make a note of it's serial number also) and you're set. For the 'installation CD', I think you'd need a USER ID, or some kind of pass number anyway, which you probably don't have.

Should be getting it tomorrow so I guess I'll find out then. Might have been better off just buying a new one. I always end up regretting my ebay purchases anyway!

Bit late now! I did manage to get it pretty cheap and the equivalent Garmin is the Nuvi 350 which is at least £100 more. Only bought it to get me down to the South of France without throwing the wife out the sunroof for her map reading!

John, where do I find the serial number?
