Laptop Crashing?
I've got Beta V1.1 of the software running on a XP laptop with a Keyspan Serial adapter.
Tonight while trying to do some logs something strange happened. I started the log at the tree as normal but when I got to the finish line to stop logging I looked and saw lost connection to the ECU but the logger was still logging. When I tried to stop logging it wouldn't let me click stop because two dialog boxes "no connection to ecu" and "logger is alread running" kept popping up. I finally had to close and reopen the program to get a good connection. My cables were secure (screwed together) so I know there wasn't a loose plug. Does anyone have any clue what could have caused this? |
Same thing on windoze 2000 pro. That happens to me but not too terribly frequent. I more often than not get a lost connection to the ecu but it allows me to stay in the program. Hopefully it is just a beta bug and will be fixed soon.

so what happens when you're driving/tuning/using the laptop & it crashes???
does the car shut down? you lose all your unsaved info? (as you can tell I'm a complete n00b to EMS') |

(as you can tell I'm a complete n00b to EMS') Car keeps running, and my most recent changes stayed. Any idea on when the software will move past a beta version? |
They are on the second version already which is what you guys have,
i have been using the software since day one and it has not crashed on my once yet, im using windows 2000 with SP3 and XP with SP2 on it, and also win 98. Check your SP's Dale |
It crashes on me all the time, and I am using 98. On 2 different laptops. But it works. :)

its called a service pack. u get it off of windows update. it should be an option on the start menu. but it is highly recomended that u have dsl or cable. cuz these sp's are kinda big. basically it is just an update for windows.

Mine crashed on me once when I was saving a map. I had to reboot and then save the map again.
Also sometimes when I save a map while the car is running, the engine will stall. Most often does not stall though. |

(all together now) Wwooooooooooooo!! Just in case you missed it, that was .... 4. You all look out now. I am rollin now. :) I really need more sleep. |
how how long of a dl was that for all 4 service packs lol? but does it really make a difference in the softwares performance?
