[QUOTE="pawtracks, post: 610502, member: 2116"] Unfortunately, resolving your driver issue as to why mapsource doesn't see your Garmin may be your best solution. It might as simple as loading new [URL="https://www8.garmin.com/support/agree.jsp?id=591"]USB drivers[/URL], or even trying a different USB port. I already provided a mapsource compatible route in your [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?s=&showtopic=119453&view=findpost&p=609743"]other thread[/URL], maybe you missed it. [URL="https://files.getdropbox.com/u/780392/CopB8.GPX.zip"]Link[/URL] The problem with all of the other solutions people are offering is your google route has many complex turns or waypoints in it. There are tons of programs out there that will convert a google map to something readable in a gpx or kml format but nothing that I have found will keep all of your specific turns intact. What you end up with is a basic square or triangular route with your 'major' key points carried over - not your specific route you have detailed at google. I imported your google map directions from google earth and spent about 10 minutes manually dragging your turns to create a closely matched mapsource file. [/QUOTE]
