All you Garmin users should take the time to learn Basecamp. Once you figure it out it is easy and fast.
Dennis,
I have put a lot of time into both Basecamp and Homeport (the marine version). I know how to work Basecamp real well, but it will not allow for stops at request without massive arm waving and it has no capability at all to predict where a fuel stop should be planned. Plus, it will not run on my Win7/64 laptop.
For something that came from Garmin, it is amazingly incomplete for a traveler that needs information for planning.

The predict feature would be nice but I just use the measure tool to figure out about where I want to stop or get fuel.
I run Basecamp on a Win7/64 desktop and used to use a Laptop too, never had any problems. I would guess that your Laptop was probably missing the required version of the .NET framework (which is supposed to install automatically but sometimes doesn't).
