Noob mapsource questions

[patrollerrob]

Just got a used vista HCx.  Nothing but the unit.  Bought a card and a cable, and using the training center link, got my computer to interface with the unit.  When I followed the link for mapsource, it stated it would only work if i had mapsource already.  Is this not accurate?  How do I get mapsource if this is only an update?  I would like this GPSr to become second natrure like a paper map and compass... and maybe save a hundred bucks.

If you install training Center, you can then install the MapSource update. Did your Vista HCx not come with a MapSource Trip and Waypoint Manager CD? If so, install that instead of Training Center.

Thanks!   I got MS loaded (had no disc) and got PNW maps into my unit no problem.

Outstanding, enjoy, it's a cool unit.
