Hi

Need to know where you are having a problem for more advice but basically go to the download page

selecting the download you want, when on that page click download and when downloaded install to your device.

Tell us where you are getting stuck. I am out for a couple of hours but someone else, I am sure will pick up on it

Hi

The zip file is a compressed file, and will probably 'contain' two files - a bmp image file and an OV2 (I think) data file.

If you're using Windows XP, you can just double click the file, and there is an option on the left to "Extract these files". This will produce the two files, which then need to be downloaded to the TomTom into the Western Europe maps area.

You cannot download the ZIP file, because the TomTom won't understand what it is.
