Hi,

I'm running EcuFlash using Parallels on my MacBook.
First reflash was ok.

Next day I try to reflash again.
Open MacBook,
run Parallels
run EcuFlash
connect Tactrix,
assign device to Parallels and click write button. First 50% were ok, but then I saw several time-out errors, cooling fans and my ecu was bricked I'm already successfully bench my ecu using MacBook and Parallels.

Somebody run EcuFlash from Virtual Machine on MacBook? How often did you bench your ecu?

Can EcuFlash 1.43 work without FTD2XX.DLL? Can in start reflashing without this DLL? But how I successfully reflash ecu first time without this DLL ...

Even after reinstalling EcuFlash I saw "error loading FTD2XX.DLL" line in log. I'm using Windows 7x86 without any updates. I can't find this DLL in EcuFlash folder, so i copy this DLL from another notebook with Win7x64 and ecuflash 1.43. Seems like this DLL not included to 1.43 Setup and present from previous versions of EcuFlash.

Can autorun interrupt reflashing? I'm click write button before I saw autorun dialog for tactrix flash disk.

What else?

I'm want to find the problem and continue to using MacBook with EcuFlash 1.43.

 

My roommate has been running ECUFlash on his macbook in a bootcamp boot of windows XP without issue for over a year.

 

^^ that's me. FWIW, ECUflash is still at 1.42 I believe.

I haven't tried parallels, however I should have VMware Fusion 3 in a couple of days and was thinking of giving this a shot using my existing bootcamp partition as the basis for the VM

 

where did you get the copy of windows XP?

 

the store? in this case, my campus software store for $5 or $10

 

EcuFlash is available for OSX, i run it just fine, i can't run evoscan on OSX so i just use my net book to run both just for connivence

 

Have you tried running your windows out of bootcamp?

 

Something familiar about this statement....
