Title: I cant get the topo 24k washington map onto trip & waypoint manager v5
Post by: goombler1 on December 15, 2010, 08:35:04 PM
Hey I'm new here.
Ok Ive got a "Garmin rino 530hcx" and it came with the Mapsource "Trip & waypoint Manager v5".
The Washington State topo 24k map form this site  here loaded up on my computer fine but the map doesnt show up on my  "mapsource".  I tried closing mapsource and reopening it, but it still doesnt show the map on mapsource. I uninstalled the map from my computer and tried again but  still it wont show up on mapsource.

I'm running XP Profesional with a 3.4ghz processor and 2gigs of ram.
My computer works awsome so I dont think its the computer.

Any Idea what might be happening and why it wont show up on my mapsource???

Any help would be great,
thanks

I updated to the version 6.13 on garmins site but the topo 24k map still doesnt show up in Mapsource.

Any ideas how to get the map onto MapSource so I can load it on my 530hcx ??

Is MS showning WA Topo as available?  Did you select the mapset for display?
Did you follow the steps in this tutorial http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/tutorials/how-to-open-maps-in-mapsource/ ?
