Title: MapInstall?
Post by: omegaman on July 16, 2017, 03:51:35 PM
Has anyone else had issues with using MapInstall? I'm not sure if I used it or Mapsource for my original Garmin 530hcx map installs, but I picked up a new garmin and tried to load maps on it with no luck using MapInstall. It doesn't want to do the math right, as I tried to load 2.76mb of data on a 2gb and it told me I couldn't as there wasn't enough room for the maps. I tried a 4gb card and it looked like it worked, but in checking I found out it didn't.

Used Mapsource, and had no problems.

That kind of message usually suggested some error in maps installed on PC.

If that's the case, why does the same map selection work fine when I use Mapsource for the maps transfer?
