1.0.73 doesn't open
« on: June 20, 2009, 07:01:53 pm »
When I try to start Megatune with firmware package 1.0.73 it doesn't open.
What is wrong?
My laptop uses Windows Vista. My friends laptop with Windows XP has the same problem.

Thanks in advance

Hi,
For some reason, I don't know what, the 1.0.73 FW will only work if in the route directory.
eg C:\Vems and not from a folder in my documents.
Cheers,

XP =  :)
Vista =  ???

As soon as i switch from COM8 (default in megatune.cfg when zip file is extracted) to COM1 (the com-port in my laptop) in Communications > Communication Settings Megatune won't start anymore.

Hi,
I've not got Vista, so I can't help you there :(

I run 1.0.73 firmware from 'My Documents' folder, no problems.

Is this an upgrade? as earlier Megatune.ini files wont work with 1.0.73, you need to use Megatune that is bundled with the firmware.

Other possabilities, is the com port set up in Megatune? Is the terminal program closed down?

Can you communicate to the VEMS with the terminal program?

This is the only good 1.0.73 bundled firmware I found to work http://media.vems.se/code/VemsMT1.0.73Final.zip
