cobra-ak Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 i have a very old version of Mapsource Topo v.3.00, there was a way to install the maps onto the computer without having to install the CD's while the program is running. I know you went into the registry. I remember the tutorial on this site Quote Link to comment

I know you went into the registry. I remember the tutorial on this site I don't know about the tutorial, but I remember reading that if you copied the contents of the cd to a directory on your computer and installed from there, you would not be nagged to have the cd in your drive while it ran.

MtnHermit Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 You should be able to Google "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Garmin\Mapsource\" and find a thread that describes the details, likely 4 years old. Happy hunting. Quote Link to comment
