Thumbs down DiabloSport and Windows Vista=problems

Anybody else having problems? I keep getting errors with the ds uploader and it goes on and on. Superchips went so smooth. This is a nightmare.

Try right clicking on the program, go to properties and on the compatability section select Windows XP. Works with most programs that have issues on Vista.

I initially tried on my 64 bit Vista, but when it did not work I went to the garage where I have my "garage" laptop. Old clunker XP machine.

Later I did see Diablo had drivers on their site, ect for Vista, but did not try it.

My Vista also reported a problem in the system trey a day or two later and downloaded a patch for the serial to USB adapter.

I'm an idiot lol!!! Was trying to upload just the tune not the crom tune that i needed. So everything went well even with Vista. Had to use 87 tune cause theres no 91 tune yet. Took it for a test drive around the block and at half throttle it feels alittle stronger. I'll have to jump on it when theres no traffic to really find out if theres a difference.

Just read on their website that you can use 91octane for the 93 tune. Also saw a guy on their forum saying that he runs 91 with no issues. So I guess its ok.
