Passing On A Mapsource Topo Tip

[pitchblende]

This is how you install Garmin's topo maps without needing to use the CD's every time you want to access them.

 

if you have it installed uninstall it. Create a new folder called 'Topo', preferably in c/garmin where mapsource is installed. Take each of the 3 CD's and copy their contents into the new folder. You will hit a couple of 'overwrite files' dialogues - say yes.

 

Then go into your new folder and find the setup icon - double click on it and you are in business.
