Can anyone help me with this problem. I recently acquired a Tom Tom GPS unit and downloaded Tom Tom Home as recommended. This TT Home program now takes over the whole screen as soon as I boot up. There is an option in Preferences to change this on Start Up, but when I did so I received the following message:- "Could not change Start Up Settings. This might be because you do not have the right to change Start Up Settings on your computer". As my PC is a standard Dell 530 I am at a loss as what to do next.

You're on vista I presume. Log in or run the exe as an administrator.
