Hi

[TomTom125NA]

Hi everyone, just wanted to introduce myself.
I'm a long time Garmin user, but bought a TomTom 125 recently to get acquainted with TomTom.

I've lurked and learned a lot on this site, but still have some questions so I registered to participate.

Welcome and ask away.......

p.s. before doing anything else, make a complete Explorer, not Home, backup of your unit's contents, Ensure hidden files/folders are showing.

Thanks dhn!

Yes I read the "what to do when you first get a TomTom" thread, and I'm very anal, so I made an explorer copy, AND a Home back up copy, and then copied the copies to 2 separate hard drives so they would be secure.

I do the same thing with the Garmin units as well. I've read too many cases of Garmin and TomTom users running into problems without a back up so I've taken notes and done exactly that!

This site has a lot of great information, which is exactly why I'm glad to be here.

Thanks again for the welcome.
