it's on a pre programmed micro sd card. appreciate everybody's advice, sadly, none of it has helped, the topo mapping appears on the gps screen, not on basecamp. everybody raves about how simple gps's are, everything ive tried just doesnt seem to work/go to plan, the lot is going on ebay, i'm going back to map and compass, i've just had enough, i've tried everything you have all suggested.

really appreciate, your reply, but i've tried all that, i need a topo map, on my laptop screen, to map out a route to walk on a later date, then save it to my gps, i have the fore-mentioned topo map now on my gps, but it doesn't change the map in basecamp, still very basic on basecamp, but registering on my gps screen.....and yes, it is connected and registering my gps in basecamp....but thats all!

all I've wanted to do, is buy a good garmin gps (i now have an Oregon 450) sit down at my laptop and plan hiking trips miles away from home. simple? not for me, I'm very new to all this but very enthusiastic, so, i have a pretty good gps, i have a laptop, i have just bought garmin  topo great Britain 010-c0927-00, inserted it into my Oregon and have the Garmin basecamp program downloaded onto my pc. can somebody PLEASE  help me as i'm on the verge of just giving up!
