I redownloaded it and installed the driver that comes with the software this time but once everything is up and running, the same error all over again. I then uninstalled all VCDS drivers and VCDS.
I've tried changing the COM to 1/2/4 also and still I get the same result which ever way, I have also tried all of the different USB ports on my laptop, installing the driver for each but again the same error message. I then connect the cable to the car and turn on the ignition, the cable lights up blue to indicate a connection has been established so I open op VCDS and test the connection to COM3, I then get this error. I right-clicked the VCDS lite icon and selected 'compatibility', from that I set permission to the application as administative, applied and okayed it. Once the driver had installed it assigned it to COM3 which is not in use by anything else. I started from scratch and plugged my non-genuine cable into my laptop, Windows 7 searched the internet for a driver and found one, presumably from Ross Tech. Casn someone please help me rectify the issue? Hi All, this is the error that I get all the time since switching from a Win XP OS laptop to Win 7 laptop & from 409.1 to the new VCDS Lite 10.6.
