laptop not connecting? E6K
 

When I boes to online mode it says loading info from haltek, yet it dows nothing? Can anyone help diagnose this problem?

Thanks

All of my sensors have 5 volts, my fuel pump primes, yet when I go into online mode it does nothing. My laptop says loading data from Haltech and stays at 0% ?

Had this same problem last weekend. My new laptop (well new to me a Pentium 1) would not connect to my E6K. Found out the laptop did not like Win 98 and the Haltech software. So I deleted Windows and installed DOS. How the laptop will connect to the Haltech.

I am running windows 95 which is a dos operating system.

I think this has bee covered a few times in the last two weeks.. one of them my thread. plain and simple it's a crap shoot to find setup that will work.. adaptors, SW, laptop architecture(if my assumptions about my IBM are right), OS, OS version, halwin version, DOS emulator... I don't think anyone has a firm handle on the perfect setup for every instance.

I've found an old Dell P3 lattitude for $230 so I think I'll be getting that to try

I was using Win 98 and it is also DOS based. And it still would not work on my Toshiba laptop. I tried every combination of settings for the com port in Windows. Flashed the BIOS with a new version. In the computer setup every cobimation was tried. And the only way my computer would connect with the Haltech was to delete Windows.

dont say this!!!
thats what ill be using!

From what I have found out, the Toshiba laptops are the most trouble free, but there will be a model that will have a problem. Mine is it, Satellite 315CDS, great computer, its just Windows and Haltech won’t agree about the com port.
