Question re: Romanian software

Friend just got his setup from Romania. The seller remotely connected to his PC to complete the install as he had trouble (Windows 7). Now everything is installed correctly, but when running INPA it won't find the car, port issue or something.

Has anyone experienced this? How did you solve it?

I need to help him as I need his software to calibrate my suspension. HELP..

This may be too silly, but when I would turn my 3rd party antivirus off to run the Romanian program, windows would turn on windows firewall and windows defender. I always have to make sure those are turned back off before connecting. Took me a while to figure that one out.

Firewall & AV off, also make sure he is using the same USB port that was configured.

I tried for months to do it on my own, even after installing his program, he had to remote in. It was infuriating seeing as I am in IT & have been doing ish like this since 1980.

He is a great seller.

Thanks guys. I will pass this info along for him to try. The seller already linked in to his computer to install everything, it's just getting the software to communicate with the car now. I will have him try these suggestions and report back.

Did it ever communicate with the car? I had him remote while connected to the car to verify all was well. He will remote in until it works.

It has never connected to the car. He got it all installed remotely, then that was it. When he tried to use it on the car it wouldn't connect to the car.

If he does not have the firewall disconnected and is unsure which USB port was configured he needs to have him remote while attached to the car and get it running both in INPA and GT1. I had the same thing happen.

Cool, I will throw that suggestion out if the others don't work.
