What steps have you taken to get it to recognize the new device?

There's an update download on the lower right hand side of the page. Try downloading that

There's the problem... SCT stuff only works with Windows, and really only works with XP, it might work sometimes with Vista.

Get a hold of SCT. If I remember correctly, NickT88LSC on here had a similar problem.

They are hell to get in touch with. I waited over a week for my tunes and now I finally got the bastards and can't get them loaded. I am having such fun. Thanks for letting me BOL. " bitch out loud" :>)

SCT sucks... it is too bad that they are the only ones who make a good product for actually tuning Fords... once you get past the initial hump there stuff works AWESOME....

I had to download microsoft frame work and I got it to work. I think I have them downloaded finally. Learning curve and excitement isn't a good combination. I guess I will be up all night now driving around Good thing it is pay day

Now I'm questioning whether to go Xcal 2 or 3.......but then again I haven't yet gotten around to the "search" for problems and troubleshooting with the Xcal 3. This is quite the interesting thread to read.....

Got them downloaded and got the performance tune on my car now. Throttle response is way better and you can feel the added torque and hp. Very Cool.
