    I need some techie help. I've read through the posts that show how to make a VAG Com cable work with XP, but I can't get the same procedure to work on a laptop with Vista. Any ideas??

    I am not sure what your exact problem is. You can make sure you have the correct com port set. Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound> Device Manager
    I dont have it open in front of me but i believe its under "Universal Serial Bus controllers" you can hit properties and change the com port. Make sure hte com port matches on Lemmi.
    Im trying to go off of memory here but its close to that.

    I have the Generic cable as well. Is your cable USB? I Know the cable has a separate USB Driver

    its easy to get it to work with vista, thats how mine is. my ebay usb cable does anything, its a newer one.

    the most youd have to do is right click and 'run as administrator', but usually i only have to do that with vag-com, not lemmiwinks. other then that its pretty straight forward.

    I had problems with my Ross-tech USB cable working with Lemmiwinks. Simple solution, get Unitronics Unisettings, version 1.4. It is free and does the same things that Lemmi does...
