EFIlive/Autotap not working
I received my Autotap EFIlive today and it does not work. I think that the cause is my USB to serial adapter. The autotap program shows that I am not connected when everything is hooked up. I installed everything today including my RadioShack USB/Serial adapter drivers, so basically I am not sure if that even works properly. The program will check for connection, after not finding one it will say that I have hardware that I am not registered for WTF? Has anyone had any problems like this? If you have, how were they resolved?
Also that 1-815- number is a joke. I waited to damn long and still got no customer service. I called back later and they were F%&*ing closed.

Re: EFIlive/Autotap not working
That was my next step. The laptop will be an older ibm with a 700Mhz PIII, will that matter as far as data logging? If that doesn't work I am going to return the USB adapter and buy a B&B version since they manufacture Autotap.

I use a Celeron 366mhz with EFILive V5 and V6. They both work fine. You need the key code for EFILive, but it should connect and check codes without it.

Re: EFIlive/Autotap not working
Thanks Assassin, I do not have the Autotap either just the EFIlive. I guess I thought since it was on the disk they sent that I should have that version too. Oh well EFIlive worked when I tryed it and that is what I wanted anyway, already have a handheld scantool.
