System Requirements for SoftMap Digital Maps
topo50, topo250 (on CD-ROM)
CD-ROMs distributed by SoftMap Publishing now operate with Version 4 software, not Version 5. An explanation for the reason can be found here.
Version 4 is a well-used, well-trusted version of the software. For customers, the only meaningful difference between Version 4 and Version 5 is that Version 4 does not contain an interface to transfer routes and waypoints to a GPS. However, it works just fine on your computer - find any location in seconds and print any area to the scale that you select.
Customers have already told us that Version 4 runs in the newer versions of Windows (Vista and 7) without problem (see below).
As the products are now using an earlier version of the software, the price has dropped dramatically to $19.95 per title (formerly $59.95 each).
System Requirements:
  • Pentium 133 (or higher)
  • 32 MB of RAM
  • minimum of 100 MB of space available on your disk drive
  • CD-ROM drive
  • video card displaying 65 000 or more colours
  • Windows versions 98, 2000, XP - see note below
When installing on Windows Vista:
  • Program files
  • Compatibility
  • Run as Windows XP SP2
When installing on Windows 7:
  • Right click "Setup"
  • Select tab "Compatibility"
  • Run as Windows XP SP2
We regret, this product is not supported for operation on Mac computers. However, some clients have used it successfully with a navigation program such as GPSy Pro or an emulation program.
All purchases of software are final. More information can be found in our Return Policy.
