My s300j was workin perfectly fine then i uploaded version 1.4.1 replacing 1.3.8 which i was previously using.

now everytime i connect the ECU to the PC and turn on the ignition the pc crashes ( blue screen) then reboots.
This is using Windows XP.
I have tried several PCs each one with XP does the same thing.
The pcs which i have tried with Windows Vista. allow me to connect S300 and turn on the ignition but there is a conflict when i go into my device manager .

I have tried countless PCs all give me this same error.

Today i tried getting another laptop, but this time i installed Version 1.3.8 and connected the ECU and it worked fine. with no issues.
I did the same thing using a virgin XP laptop and installed 1.3.8 and it worked. I took this same laptop and installed 1.4.1 and got the same blue screen. i uninstalled the Smanager software but to no avail. no matter what now this PC is no longer connecting.

I would like to know why thiswould happen?
Yes i know it is a conflict but i can connect any USB device to these laptops and they all work fine, it is only the S300.

I would like to know if there is a way i can flash(format) my ECU and try again from scratch and see if it persist?

I would like to know if there is a way to install version 1.4.1 and use the drivers from 1.3.8 which seem to work fine?

I mainly like 1.4.1 for the fan control feature. which i found a great asset to me especially since i live in the caribbean where it is hot 24/7

Anyway my personal 2 laptops no longer work with my s300 since they have windows XP.

My car is a Honda civic with a B18C motor, weisco pistons, eagle rods, buddy club cams, cam gears and valve springs, blox intake manifold, typeR throttle body. Tri-Y header, 2.5 exhaust . walbro 255 pump and 750cc injectors
Hondata s300

Please assist .

once again the car works with the 1.3.8 if only installed on the PC for the first time.
The car is capable of tuning, datalogging, realtime updates, all the normal stuff, I just cant get the S300 to work with 1.4.1 on any pcs i try

I believe you have already called us about this and we offered to give you an RMA number, but you declined it.
