  1. Hi again! I just found a workaround for the error. No permanent fix but it makes the software work. We up here in the nordics have different delimiters for numbers. Example: US format = 100.00 Euro format = 100,00 See the difference? We have a comma as default in windows as aside from you guys have a period as default. That is what messes things up. It's a pretty common mistake among programmers to set adaptive regional settings. Don't worry, even big software makers do this mistake often. So here's the temporary fix: 1. Click Start button -> Control panel -> Regional and language options. 2. Now choose English (USA). Click Apply. 3. Start PClink software and enjoy! This is just a workaround and i still think that the software should be looked at to be adaptive to national settings. The output format should remain the same but some sort of debuging in needed to prevent the software from crashing because of such a small coding error. Sincerly, Kim H.
  2. Hi! Last few days i have been searching for info on standalone ECU's. The Link and Vi-Pec products are available here in Sweden and have a very good reputation. So i have been trying out the tuning software from many vendors of ECU's. All have their own strengths and weaknesses. On to my observations: The latest Link tuning software has a bug that throws an error when trying to load a log file. 'out of resources'. First computer i tried it on was my desktop windows 7 64 bit machine. And just a moment ago i tried it on my tuning laptop, a acer aspire one windows xp 32 bit machine. The laptop has been worked flawless for years. The PClink software throws the same error on both machines. So i figured i will try the earlier version of the software. Still throws the same error. Strangest thing it works perfect on the vi-pec version of the software. It can also load the Links version of the 'drag' log without a hassle. I have been programming since 1985 and do extensive work on the stock 6G Mitsubishi ECU's. So i have a gut-feeling that this error must be related to your software. My guess would be that it has a resource hog somewhere just around the transition from ECU to Log window routine. I have tried the software on machines that never seen the software before. Fresh installs. If you need me to assist with screenshots or anything else i am glad to help. As of now this bug is holding me back from ordering the Link ECU since datalogging is a crusial part of my toolbox. We have great suppot for the Link products over here in Sweden so i hope you will resolve this error really soon. Best regards, Kim H.
