Hi Warin, I can see your a seasoned Hubber and I have read Colebatch's 1st post many times. What i see is a post aimed at folk who have some ability with IT navigation. I on the other hand am a total novice to PC navigation. I am slowly getting to grips with the lingo but where as people who have some IT skills can follow tips without flinching I hit a wall. You mentioned (.nl) what is that...????
Let me recap on what I think I understand so far and what i have to play with.
I have BC & MS downloaded. I have some .exe files & some zipped .img files also downloaded. Can you explain to me what BC does and MS does with regard to keeping files ready to download onto a SD card. Should i keep one map/SD card or can I store several..?? I have my Garmin 390LM and want to keep it, it would seem many folk are or have been so frustrated by Garmin they use other GPS devices but i'm gonna stick with it. I only need to find my way here once and then it will stick with me but PC's, IT in general have and are so particular in use they leave zero margin for error and as my IT/PC navigation skills are so poor at the minute I need some very basic guidance .
I will continue to read posts and self educate but please also help out on here.
Can someone give me a basic generalisation of 'basecamp' and 'mapsource' please...???
