DeLorme Topo USA 2.0/eTrex Legend - HELP

I would appreciate help from anybody who's been using the DeLorme Topo USA 2.0 mapping program and a Garmin eTrex.

 

I'm relatively new to this, so this may be something simple.

 

I want to download routes from my eTrex Legend to my PC so that they can displayed on the PC display map. The program will download the Tracks perfectly. The waypoints are downloaded as giberish. And the routes won't download at all.

 

I know I'm getting the proper connection and have adequate serial settings because the Tracks download, but I can't understand why the waypoints and routes are not downloading.

 

Anybody have this problem? Is it the version of DeLorme that I have (2.0)? Is this program too old? Or not compatible with newer Garmin products like the eTrex?

 

I'd appreciate any light you might be able to shed on this situation.

 

Thanks.

I had to download some patches to get my version to work with my Etrex Venture - and I am running version 6.0. The current version is either 8 or 9 - 2.0 might not be supported anymore. Check on their website to see if there are any updates for your version.
