Tomtom one problem

I bought one today, is it meant to work straight from the box?

i have just turned it on and it is flasing an SD card with a big red cross through it, even though the sd card has been inserted.

anyone able to tell me please.

  • Hmmmm, strange, yes I believe they are meant to work out of the box - mine certainly did.

    Have you tried removong, and re-seating the SD card? Is there anything actually on the SD card, i.e. can you see any files if you use an SD card reader?

    Sounds like you need to return the thing to me....

    Regards,

    It only fits one way.

    I took it back this morning (the replacement they gave me was sealed, the on they gave me yesterday wasn't!)

    The new one worked straight out of the box.
