Im trying to connect to the INT-X with my serial to usb connector. I'm on windows vista, and i have the beta version 1.1 software. I configured my ports so the int-x would hook up through com port 1.

It will connect properly for a few seconds and then a box pops up saying "Laptop tuning software ha stopped working" and give me an option to send an error report to microsoft. Has anyone else come across this problem before?

 

VISTA

 

or cheap serial port adapter..

i am running all my stuff fine on vista.. thought i was going to have to do a dual boot with xp.. so far have not had to.

Well I'm using a brand called Dynex from best buy. I've read from the microtech forum that it might have to do with the adapter. Where would I be able to get a good one? Or what is a good brand of serial to usb?

 

hymee sent me a link to something i cant recall right now. but i got a belkin at staples because i had to have it right now. works great.. do search and download the vista drivers.. btw, it was not cheap. i think it was 39 bucks.

hope that helps.

Just be careful about cable length! I found that using a shorter cable (mine was pretty damn long) resolved most of my communication issues.

 

LOL! thats it? my bestbuy one was like $45 canadian.. i almost hit the floor when i saw that...

the bestbuy one i have now is 16 inches
