Default JETCAT USB HELP

Hello all

finally getting around to using the JetCat USB SW and USB cable to connect to my ECU to download data. I am running WIN7 64bit.

I downloaded the SW from the link on Todd's site (direct to the German site) and I have installed all the SW (and translated the pdf instructions page as well).

so, when i plug in the cable to my laptop, i get a message that it is trying to install drivers, but that the driver install fails. i tried the drivers on the JetCat DE website-no joy.

i am getting a similar message with trying to install my JR 12x datasafe transfer sw. all good for the SW install, but when i get to plugging in the USB device-no luck.

i have successfully run the Phoenix Sim SW, so.........

help!!

also, when you run the JetCat USB ECU SW/cable, do you have to have the ECU powered or just plug in the jack?

when i did try to "find" the device with auto detect, it just looked at all the ports and then failed.....

standing by for the simple answer-and this is the computer i am planning on using so going to another computer is not a real option for me.

thanks for your help.
