:charliebrown: ARGHHHHH!

SO. I search and I search, but the damn search function won't let me search just THIS forum. So I'm breaking the rules. But I'm pretty damn frustrated. I just bought this EVO, I'm sitting in my garage, which is extremely hot, trying to connect to this damn XEDE.

I bought a USB adaptor thing, but when I open Xmap(I think I'm still on V2 but I'm not sure cause I can't connect to look), it can't find it. Can't find it in XUpdate either. I fiddle with the com port settings in XMap, and COM3 is the only one that's not in use by something else. I look in the device manager and it says the USB device is plugged into "Location 0". WTF is location 0? I can't find anyway to change that to a COM1 or anything like that. I suck at computers. I just wanna go drive and enjoy the launch control. I didn't get any sort of instructions for the XEDE with the car. So please. Help me.

Ok I got it to connect in XMAP V.2 but XUpdate still won't work...keeps saying com1 is busy with something else.

The original thing was a problem with the driver. I reloaded it and now it's working. I'm taking a break to charge my laptop. And hopefully once I cool down I'll be able to think clearly enough to get this working. I don't remember Texas being this hot.

Computers start counting at 0. So if your machine has two COM ports. The first one is #0 and the second one is #1.

Trust me I know how to search

I hung out on nasioc for two years...I would never not search first unless absolutely necessary. But for some reason every time I clicked search only the XEDE forum, it would search every forum... So it was really hard to get anything remotely related.
