Hopefully the download is an .imi or .rmp file and the serial number is matched to your GPS. If so, just move the map to your SD card under the folder /MAP_DATA. Start your GPS and activate it.
The map has to be authorized by Magellan so make sure it is to your GPS serial number.
Don't bother with the 400 on a Win7 machine even though Magellan claims it will work. I also keep getting a bad pool header blue screen on mine even though I've updated everything I could. The best thing to do is to either setup a dual boot system with WinXP and only plug it in while running XP (Don't bother with XP mode in Win7) or have a second system that's dedicated to XP and run Vantage point from it like what I run now from my laptop.
The whole problem is caused by the Triton driver and for some reason Win7 doesn't like it all that much. Vantage Point does run great inside Win7 but as soon as you plug in the Triton, that's when it all starts to screw up.
All we can do is wait until Magellan gives us a proper working driver.
This is a common problem when you enter geocaches or Waypoints in which you DID NOT SCRUB the html code. Start Deleting Geocaches until you find the bad one and all will return to normal.
Also investigate a program called GSAK and use its stripper before you load the geocaches.
Sounds to me like you are trying to see a TOPO picture using the Basemap. Assuming that you have TOPO maps the terrain should appear at the 3 miles:1 scale and lower.
OK .. first of all there is a rule "NEVER RUN VP AND NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC SOFTWARE AT THE SAME TIME!!"
This problem usually occurs when the NG software has been loaded incorrectly.
Here is the solution:
1) Uninstall the NG software from your computer. 2) Use the Triton CD_ROM and load the sample NG software (This version 4.4.0) 3) Now update the 4.4.0 to 4.4.3
Now you have the correct software. Just reload your maps from the NG CD_ROM data disks and you are OK.
The RED X is a symbol when the maps you have do not match the serial number of the GPS you are trying to run them on. You have to use the Adventure Pack and create NEW MAPS with the present GPS attached.
Could be a series of problems. One is that the USB connection to the GPS is not working. Go to TOOLS and check the connection. If your connection is good then the size of the map you are trying to export may be too large. Make up a small map and test it againl.
