once you get it running, NEVER touch anything.

Wait until you have dozens of pieces of USB-based gear with unique FTDI drivers, the software installer packages for some of it will try and overwrite the other's, thereby disabling them. Hyundaidata's K-manager was (I suspect deliberately) famous for that for a few years.

I have Device Manager open every other car I tune and have to tweak something to make everything work. It's not as big of a deal as it was a year or even two years ago. XP and driver packages are a lot more intelligent. I go through and weed out unused USB devices ever 4-6 months, and I try to always plug the same gear into the same USB port so it doesn't assign itself another unique COM port - some software won't recognize past COM16, some COM30, a few work great with no stupidity. IIRC I have 32 dedicated COM ports on my main laptop.

I used to have problems nearly every time I tried tuning with crome. Those problems ended as soon as I bought myself a serial datalogging cable. I haven't had a connection problem since.
