Author MapSource Crashing after Topo Install
PMurphy

2005-10-28, 5:48 pm

I have a Quest with City Select loaded onto my computer. All worked
fine until I went and tried to install my MapSource TOPO.

The first time I ran MapSource after the TOPO installed, it loaded with
the "WEST" selected. I live int he "EAST" so on the drop down list I
selected "TOPO - EAST". The program immediately exited.

Now every time I try to start MapSource, the program loads and
immediately exits.

Any suggestions on what could be happening?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I see this lots of times when I make maps.

Don't know why this happends with the maps you bought, but MapSource loads
the maps from registry. So you can easily remove the maps and work with
MapSource (except for the maps that don't work).

Otherwise, try reinstall the maps.

There is a basemap patch downloadable from the Garmin site that should
fix that problem. You can find it here:
