I have a Nuvi 850. I have lost the discs. Want to program Mapsource on
PC. How can I do it as there is no other such product on my PC which
was recently Re-formatted.

THANKS

I use BaseCamp with my Nuvi 765. It works with City Navigator and does
everything I need. You can download and install it from scratch with no
problems.

Because Garmin doesn't know how to support the consumers as they suppose
to. I would suggest you to ask for help from the HACKERS instead.

I normally don't suggest these to normal companies, but Garmin is pretty
stupid on this part. IOW, how the heck they keep releasing the UPDATE
versions, but won't provide new buyers with the original MapSource in order
to use the UPDATE version.

You just point your browser to GOOGLE or BitTorrent to search for the FULL
version of MapSource, and who knows it may come with the newer version of
City Navigator (a treat for your trouble).

Last time, someone here mentioned some version from Garmin site and a
trick to bypass the stupid protection which worked *but* not exactly like
the FULL version.
