Green light is okay, thats the ecu getting power.

As for the version of windows. That might be acting up.

I once tried using the microtech software on a vista setup computer and had no luck.

Went with a old school laptop ( windows 98 )and it work well ( after not working with the newer , vista laptop ).

Do you have access to an older laptop ? , if so give that a try. IF not try running a virtual pc or dos box setup . ( those two options work fantastic in the haltech world , but I havent tried it with the microtech side of things ).
