Hi Carl
Thanks for the reply, I think your correct about if MSwindows is 32 or 64 bit, most P/C and laptops are 64 bit and crashes for the editor seems to crash very easy then if using a older P/C using a 32 bit XP version
I have tried to install earlier versions of .NET, VS and Vbasic runtimes but news MSwindows do not support older versions
I assume people who are using older versions of the Tunercat OBD-II editor have less problems, I use whatever newest updates found on
Tunercat website is at V 3.55
I used to have problems also with the Winflash but John had come out with a Winflash for the dealers kit which was written few years back and
is coded to work on newer MSwindows, version 4.25 and zero issues with that version but for whatever the reason Tunercat says they cannot find
the problem as for the editor crashing in different ways :-(
I have to assume as you did that when the editor was first written it was complied for older .NET and VB which does not work correctly with newer versions of those 2 MS programs.
This is really bad as if I do not keep saving as I make tune changes and editor crashes then I loss all the changes and time I had done and have to start over again so was hoping some other Tunercat owners have found some workaround or band-aid to solve this :-(
Yet as I mentioned sometimes the editor crashes saying no free memory when task manager shows 10 gigs free or crashing saying the client has disconnected
and when I am custom tuning my P/Cs or laptops are set to have minimum programs or DLLs, etc running in background and they are set for best performance which limits 40 or less MSwindows processes running :-(
I see no reason if CPU is 3 Ghz or more and multi processors should crash when using a small program like the editor
Problem is I use other programs like a professional OBD I/II scanner and it will not work on Win XP and older laptops do not support newer windows and caps off with maximum 3 Gig of memory or do not have enough USB ports
Thanks
