Hi everyone, i am trying to install a pnp on my 95 with out mass air flow. Anyways, when i go to load up the firmware, it says that it isnt operational with my version of windows. (i am running Vista). Do you have any ideas, do i have to download any more software? Are there different versions im not aware of, i checked the site, the Faqs on here, and did a search on m.net and here. Also, of course i consulted the manual. Any ideas?

 

nothing so far?

 

How about grabbing a screen shot of the error message?

 

Screenshots...

 

needs posting at msextra.com

 

Just borrow someone elses laptop that is 32-bit to flash then megatune will work on anything.

 

try right clicking the program, going into propertys and setting compatibilty to make it run in windows XP mode maybe?

it did not install the program in your "program files" folder did it? all my 32 bit apps i have go into the "program files x86" folder for me

 

fu.... I just got this same lame *** message on my computer

 

if anyone has this problem, heres the solution.

Aww, yes..... another problem solved with search. Handy.

 

Did the fix work?

 

Ill let you know shortly. I just got home from work.

 

Its giving me an error message once the download firmware dos screen loads up that wont let me use the program

It says its Not a valid Win32 application.

 

Got the same message, i posted it on m.net

 

this problem is caused by the choose command the flashing script uses. if someone were to remove, or bypass, the comm port selection and just hard code a specific port in it should work.

Ill take a swing at it. What comm port are you using?

OK the aabove would work, the fix is to replace CHOICE.COM(16bit) in \src with a 32/64-bit version. Preferably choice.exe

Attached is a copy of the newer version of choice.exe(one named "choice.exe" and the other "choice.com", both are the same file). Drop them into the src folder(C:\Program Files\MegaSquirt\[version]\src) and see how it runs. Only other problem I see is download.exe not being compatible with 32-bit, but we will see.



EDIT AGAIN:
Or you could just listen to the people at M.net, they seem to have ti fixed.

 

Thats why we got the new error message, there were 2 choice files in that link you put here, i will deal with it when i get back home from work, i gotta run now. COM1 btw

 

Is that what it should look like with no cable hooked up? I have never seen it correctly.

 

I have been playing around with it on my desktop (64bit) and just as stated before it does not work. After replacing the CHOICE.COM file it proceeds to work correctly. With no cable hooked up, when choosing a com port it will still continue to the next screen for you to choose if you are upgrading from the standard code or not. So it should work with just replacing the CHOICE.COM file. In my opinion this should have been included before.

Side note... What USB>Serial cable are you using that has 64bit drivers?

 

USB 2.0 TO SERIAL RS232 DB9 9 PIN ADAPTER CABLE PDA GPS - eBay (item 230389570256 end time Dec-16-09 07:33:10 PST)

It is that cable with prolific driver software 3.2.0.0
