DISCLAIMER: I will not be responsible for anything you do with
RegEdit.  Always make a backup first...

That said here are instructions for copying mgwest, mgeast or
mgregional to your hard drive (I assume there is something similar to
be done with the topo maps).  For example I will use 'mgwest'.

1) Copy the 'mgwest' folder to 'C:\MGWEST' or somewhere else of your
choosing.  Make sure MapSource is NOT running.

2) run regedit (Choose: Start Menu, Run..., type 'regedit' then press
ENTER).  Open 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Garmin\MapSource\Products'
by clicking on the folder names one at a time.  For MapSource there
should be 3 folders, '10', '11', and '12' for mgwest, mgeast and
mgregional respectively.

3) For 'mgwest' choose '10'.  There should be a key called 'loc' with
a value of 'E:\MGWEST' (if E: is your CDROM).  Double click the key
and change it to 'C:\MGWEST' or whereever you put those files in step
1.

4) Quit RegEdit.  Run MapSource.  When accessing mgwest files
MapSource should not ask for the CDROM.
