YDS, version 1.33, diagnostic question

[TownsendsFJR1300]

Maybe you can reach Mr. scottcmb1965, he seems to know something about this?

Just PM'ed him, thank you Chuck.

I went to that "d2xx" download page posted on page 2, might as well be written in Chinese. I have NO idea what the heck is on there......

I'll wait for Scott to PM me back...

Here's a contact link to BRP in good old USA California:

BRP diagnostics contact page

THANK YOU!!

No phone #'s but just e-mailed them all the questions I needed to know...

I'll update when /if I get something accomplished. (I'd rather be cleaning a carb!!)

Just read some on that site. It is good for Windows 10. The kit I have IS the current kit
good for up to 2012 model yammies...

I think you will need their help with W10 system. Hell maybe they will send you the latest version!

You are screwed up Scott! W10=Windows 10. I'm no IT guy either!

Here's an excerpt from BRP's site about their product that is in this link:

:

"Our YDS Pro kit uses a modern interface that is fully compatable with all late Windows versions upto and including 8.1"

Notice how they misspelled the words in red?

I know where you got it the site said compatible with Windows 10.

Best of luck to you!!!

[pstephens46]

Bet they have a fix available...

[cpostis]

Bet they have a fix available...

Sure does look like they do. One page on their site says good to Windows 8.1, another page says Windows 10.

They need a good IT guy to update their pages and remove old pages.

Before you know it Scott, you'll be bragging how the software shows everything is ok and you can be rebuilding carbs for your neighbors again!

Chuck is the mad librarian tonite!

Notice how they misspelled the words in red?

What is the protocol for when words can be joined together to form a new word anyway? Who gets to decide?

Morrow is the word for "the following day". I could say that I am going to morrow to the beach. Or, I could say I am going tomorrow to the beach.

Is it air line or is it airline? Is it air craft or is it aircraft? Is it up to or is it upto?

The posts on this forum over the past two/three days surely have been strange.

Where the hell is Gallagher when we need him?

W10, jeez...

Ok, how do we abbreviate "OK"? "K"?

It's habit..

Twenty five years of writing arrest reports, other reports, all pubic reports / documents, (which is seen by lawyers, judges, media, etc), I try to keep it grammatically correct. Spelling counts too...

By the way, I really like Windows ten.. (not 10)

[pstephens46]

Gods Teeth!

Actually made up the W10 reference a couple hours ago.

I hereby rescind W10. Hereby and somewhat forthwith to be replaced with
WX.

Somewhat clearer I expect.

[boscoe99]

WX is an abbreviation for weather.

[pstephens46]

Windows Ten

Clear as mud.
