Can I use City Navigator by Garmin (CNNAV8) on my vista operating system?
What about TOPO charts? Trip & waypoint manager? They all worked on XP!!!

Only the people who make that software can tell you for sure.

Garmin Topo 2008 version 6.13.1 is Vista compatible...here's a link to
the update:

http://www8.garmin.com/support/downl...ils.jsp?id=209

there are also usb drivers available for Vista- go to the Garmin
website, select your unit and look for available downloads.

I have an etrex Vista hcx, and Topo 2008 works great. You don't need to
install Trip and Waypoint manager if you have Topo 2008 installed...it's
just for use with the basemap that comes installed on the unit. The Topo
program has its own "manager" (Garmin specifically told me not to
install Trip and Waypoint if I was going to install Topo 2008).
