    Default Tuning and logging issues, Please help. Nothing Works!

    Ok, I've got some issues, and I'm sure that with all the intellegent people on this forum, you might have answers.

    I'm having trouble with pretty much everything I try to log with. I'm using Vista 64 bit, Open port 1.3u. and lc-1 with a serial to usb adapter.

    Mitsulogger is the only thing that has worked fine, only problem is I can't log my lc-1 with it, or I don't know how(maybe there is a trick)?

    Logworks works, but my load configuration seems to be off, as it reads like 150-160% max.

    EvoScan seemed to be working fine, my lc-1 wasn't logging correctly, but I think that could be user error. Also, the resolution seems kinda crappy(only about ten samples from 3000rpm to redline). Does it get better if you log less parameters?

    And when I try to add things to XML, nothing. I've even copied so called working xml files, and when I open a rom in EcuFlash nothing is different.

    I'm not that new to tuning, just new to tuning evo's. I'm pretty proficient with AEM and Hondata, but it seems as though these are a bit more complex then that. Hondata is like gods gift to beginners, with room to grow, and AEM just decides to fail in the middle of driving down the highway(long story).

    Any input you could add would be most appreciated.

    Thank you,
    George

    Logging less items improves resution dramatically with Evoscan. I generally never log more than 5 items at once. Vista 64-bit is by far the worse OS for tuning software, especially since they Ll are 32-bit programs.

    The XML files you 'see' and are editing aren't the ones that evoscan or ECUflash are referencing. If you go to the XML folder, on the top menu bar area there is a button labeled 'compatibility files'. Selecting that feature allows you to see the original files intended for windows XP instead of whatever ones you normally can see. It's beyond stupid. Get windows7 32-bit if you can.

    Here is a link of the button you are looking for:

    Well, that's good news! Stupid Vista!

    Ok I'll try the compatibility mode and see what happens.

    Thanks,
    George

    That compatibility mode thing worked like a charm! Thanks for the advice.
