    This make take 30-45 seconds after the selection has been made.

3. A default location on your hard drive will be selected. You may change this if you choose.

4. Click Copy. The MapTrails CD will be copied to the disk.

After the copy is complete, the MapTrails software will install itself again to set the location information of the maps just loaded.  Select the same location, to load the program, as you did you first loaded the MapTrails software.

If your system has multiple CD drives, you may run one or more MapTrails or ChartTiff CDs simultaneously.  Simply place all desired CDs in their drives and refresh the map set. See loading instructions below.
