Default I got my VAG-Com a bit ago and still haven't been able to use it - can anyone help?

I go to options then test, it says:

Com Port Status: OK
Adaptor Status: Unknown Device

How do I remedy this? Thanks!

Default The COM port you've selected has a modem on it.

You need to select a different one. Look in Device Manager, under Ports (COM & LPT) to see what it really is. If you're running any kind of PDA hot-synch program, disable it, they have the nasty habbit of hogging the COM ports.

There's no PDA and I didn't think there was a modem on it. I'll mess with it tonight - thanks!

I tried disabling the modem and then it gave me a com port error. Any thoughts?

Default If you have a genuine Ross-Tech interface,

please call us while you're in front of your PC and we'll help you figure it out.

If you bought some other interface, contact the vendor for assistance.
