Mapsource on laptop - in car gps navigation

RiverRat · 12-13-2007, 08:36 PM

This is most likely a stoopid question but how can I use my garmin gps map 60 in car hooked up to the laptop to display location? I used to be able to do this but upgraded mapsource to 6.12.4 I can't figure out how to now?
