Well mine "did" work but only once, must admit i havn't tried sagain since... I'm guessing right-click and run it in "windows XP compatibility mode" might solve it, will have to have a go when i get a spare 5 mins. In the meantime if anyone can shed any mor elight on the freeware vagcom/vista issue it would be most appreciated!  :wink:

As above and if this doesn't work then you can install MS Virtual PC ( can't do it on Vista Basic ) and then install a em "legal" version on XP in there...  you should then be able to use the software in the Virtual XP
