get to pressing F1 than select CAS, than F3 for ZCS/FS f. ECU and get an error

VIN is faulty coapi-2000: EDIABAS or SGBD error IFH-0003: DATATRANSMISSION TO INTERFACE DISTURBED

searching google about it now

i did notice when i plugged the cable into the computer i had to manually find the USB drivers for it so i selected the driver from the disc in the USB Drivers folder, ftdiport and it installs as a USB Serial Port (COM3), there is one other driver, ftdibus that i didn't try fully installing.

any suggestions while i'm google searching?

haha i thought i was so close too

*EDIT*
got error IFH-0003: DATATRANSMISSION TO INTERFACE DISTURBED cleared
i had the car sitting to long with the key fob in, turned on the vehicle and my cable LED came back on but now i got another error
VIN is faulty coapi-2001: EDIABAS not initiated even tho i see the EDIABAS Server sitting in the toolbar at the bottom
looks like its back to google

DIY didn't show to set latency
i went and set it to 1 from 16
my USB Cable keeps installing as COM3, if i select to change it to COM1 it says it's in use already, i dont have any other USB devices plugged in except a wireless keyboard so i tried unplugging that even tho its showing as a USB device and not using COM1

Does your laptop have a serial port? If it does, try disabling it in the BIOS maybe that will free up COM1.

no it doesn't but it's showing as a USB Serial Port?
i just unplugged it and i'm going to un/re install my com ports then plug it back in
maybe i'll try a different driver

*EDIT*
that was a bad idea
now INPA won't even see it all, getting API errors

might have to uninstall everything and delete all internet software except DATEN Files and BMW Coding tool
then use the CD install again

USB Serial Port is what i have too. Right click on it in device manager and update drivers. Use the same drivers you used before.
