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.
