[s-cars] NAC

[Ian Duff]

Jack, I had a serial VAG-COM cable and a Keyspan USB to serial  
adapter. No joy with VAG-COM, although my Garmin GPS worked fine. So  
I upgraded to a USB HEX+CAN VAG-COM cable. That, plus a download of  
the latest software installed with the USB drivers, and I'm off like  
a prom dress. I should mention, this is all in XP Pro SP2 running  
under Parallels 3.0 build 4128 on a 2.16GHz MacBook Pro Core Duo with  
2GB RAM.

What kind of VAG-COM cable do you have? What kind of problems are you  
having?

I've also got Bentley running in Parallels, now I just need to get  
ETKA 7 to load and I'll be in hog heaven.

-Ian.
