I have just received a cable off e-bay and installed it with the driver that came with it. I then installed the share ware version of VAG-COM and making sure my cable was on com 4 tried to test this port (with no car attached) and got a message saying com port was there but no cable. i tried up-dating the driver that i got with my cable (called usb serial port) to the drive you receive with the vag-com software and it said the driver is not for this device.

 

Is this not working cos i have no car attached or is it somethinkg else?

Possibly. I've never tried running it with a cable attached and no car. Try plugging it into the car and see what happens.

Are you running vista or xp? If on vista, right click on the vagcom icon on the desk top, click 'properties' then 'compatibility'.

Tick the box that says 'run as windows xp' and then tick the box that says run as administrator. Click apply then ok.

 

If that doesnt work un install the usb lead driver.

Turn off internet connection

Insert the disc with the driver on

Plug the usb cable back in

Vista should then search the disc for the driver, if not you'll have to search for the driver file manually.
