vagcom help - SEAT Cupra.net

SNOWZ · 05-01-2009, 23:39

just got my ebay cable to work on my freeware version of vagcom, i had to change the port for the usb cable from the default com8 to com2 with thanks to nogutsnoglory on my thread in mk3 ibiza section,

Anyway, i open vagcom select the correct com and press test and it finds it and i save the com port.

i go into first page again and press the auto scan button button, i then chose ibiza 6K version and press start, it starts scanning address 1 and came up no fault codes, it then starts to scan address2 but a window pops up and says.

"windows has found a fault with vagcom and has to close, it will find a solution if there is one"

What does this mean, i cant find wots wrong as it doesnt list any list any problems and offer any solutions.

Is it my cable, vagcom or laptop??

i've tried ti use the 311.2 version too but windows keeps closing vafcom but it doesn't say what the problem is and offers no solution.

i'm getting very stressed now, i know its the the real deal but plenty of people on here use it so why wont it work for me

What version of windows are you using?

SNOWZ · 07-01-2009, 13:03

vista m8,

i've been trying to find any other threads with same problem.

i've uninstalled all the versions of vagcom and tried them again 1 at a time but windows still closes it without saying why, gonna try to download it on my bros desktop l8r

I cant get vag-com to work with vista. Been trying for ages, gave up now and just bought a little plug and play code reader for now.

thing is it keeps cutting out daily now, and it was on a diagnostic comp on sat and didn't bring up any faults, want to run vagcom on it as it is specifically for our cars not just a genral diagnostic programe and can do more testing.
