so i bought this the other day http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...d=1,1&item=4638544798&sspagename=STRK:MEWN:IT, and for another 11, i got the upgraded palm m500. came with everything i need, cable for the car, cable to hook up to my computer, OBDgauge, palm'n'stein and whatever else, but when i go to use it, it doesnt work, it wont log anything except rpms and tps, and it wont read codes or erase them either. OBDgauge works, thats about it, and i guess its cause im ATX since i did some searching, but apparently theres a way around that but i cant find out how. does anyone know anything about this, or how to get it to work for me?

does anyone know anything about this? i think i seen something about having to get a hacked version of the software, but i cant find anything else about this

Are you sure you're using it right? Maybe theres an online guide to it.

...why I dont buy car parts off ebay.

Get MMCd 1.8+, OBD Gauge and Palmenstein are the most un-userfriendly trash logging programs I've ever used.

what he said ^^

-- well maybe that explains it. but the guy said he tested it before sending it to me, and it worked fine for him, but he's a manual, so i think its just because im an auto. but if mmcd will work better, is there a free download for it, if so, can someone tell me where i can find it at?

wait, isnt MMCd for 1g's? and also, i tried installing the palm desktop icon, and tried to hotsync from my computer, but it wont even do that, what could be the problem? it says the connection between the handheld computer and desktop icon cannot be established. check your connection and try again, and i did, a few times, but it wont work...any ideas?
