new laptop problems

Post by civicshocker98 »

okay so I had tuner studio on my old laptop where I got my car running from and would tune off that laptop. I wasn't the one tuning it it was my buddy that now lives in another state. my computer that he used to tune on is now broke. I went out and bought a new laptop installed tuner studio on. it will not connect to my ecu I have pnp ms, it is in a Honda. anywaysit keeps saying something is not installed. I need help. also is it going to erase my tune when I do get itup and running?

Please post a screen shot of the error message. This is very unusual.

It sounds like you don't have the drivers installed for your USB to RS232.
What cable are you using?
