I have a TomTom XL and have map updates.  I routinely do the map updates.  Typically they take one to three days.  I run Mac OS x 10.6.7, but no longer use this for the TomTom as Home does not work with this OS.  I use Windows 7 64 Bit for updating my TomTom now.  However, when I perform the update, it never gets through before an error occurs during the install.  Normally I just manually install the map using Windows Explorer, but now even this is taking forever.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  There are tons of message boards about this with no solutions and the CS rep said just buy a new TomTom.  I have to say if I do have to buy a new GPS it will be a Garmin as my parents nuvi takes about 25 minutes to update and is 3 years old.  Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
