A little Help

Has your Gryphon changed your truck back to stock (level 0)? I know there are issues if the programmer is set to anything but level 0 when you try and connect to the computer.
Try changing the order of connection. If you are running Pegasus and then connecting the unit to the computer, try it the other way, ie, hook everything to the computer and then run Pegasus.
If possible, try a different connection cable. Most any digital camera cable will work as long as the plug is the same size.

The problem with the Gryphon only comes up when your are trying to download the custom tunes, in this case he doesn't seem to be able to get that far.

Did you install the drivers when you installed Pegasus?

[SinCityFX4]

It said it did....I have remnoved Pegasus and re-installed it twice to make sure

[OneTomcat]

If plugging the unit in causes the driver installation window to pop up, it sounds like the cable must be good and the program knows it's being accessed so it would appear there is a problem with the drivers somewhere. I don't know which of the 2 drivers is causing an issue so it may be a problem that Bill will have to look at.

Well, I just caved in a PM'd Corey to see what we can find out. SOrry, tried not to bug you Cor. Can't call em since I am sure they are closed on Fridays. Everyone needs a day off

It's alright, will just salivate waiting to try these bad boys out for a few more days.

Just a small thought, are you by any chance using Windows Vista as your operating system? There are things you must do in this case that are covered in the Pegasus User Manual, available here: http://dygytalworld.ehost-services13...Downloads.html (Second download on this page).

Beyond that, I'm in the same boat as the rest of the folks who have given you excellent advice! It's the only thing I can think of!

Yeah, I tried that. No go

Sin, I'm not really sure I'm going to be of any help, but I've spent more time reading your posts this morning (last evening we had guests coming over and I was in a hurry).

In one of your posts you talked about a driver installation window popping up? You almost certainly have a driver problem if that's the case.

So, bear with me while I try to verify a few things - and if you've already done all this, I'm sorry, I just don't have any better ideas.

When you activate Pegasus, is the version number V2.01.0127? (It's on the top in the title bar of the application window). If it's earlier, use Updates->Pegasus Update Manager to update it.

Then, under "Help", the first two choices are "Install Pegasus USB Drivers" and below that is "Install Evolution USB Drivers". When I click on "Install Pegasus USB Drivers", a popup appears that lets me do just that, and it gives this location as the default directory: "C:Program FilesPHPUSB Driver". When I look in this directory, I find these files, all dated 5/6/2008:

phpunin2k.exe
phpunin.exe
phpunin.u2k
phpunin.u98
slabbus.sys
slabcm95.sys
slabcmnt.sys
slabcomm.vxd (Thanks, OneTomcat)!
slabcr.sys
slabser.sys
slabvcd.vxd (Thanks, SinCityFX4)!
slabvcr.vxd (Thanks again, SinCityFX4)!
slabwh95.sys
slabwhnt.sys

Make sure you have all of these files. If not, possibly clicking on the "Install" button will put them there.

I also have another directory: C:Program FilesPHPUSB Drivers (note that it's "Drivers" plural) that has older files, probably from an earlier version of Pegasus. I doubt they're valid now and am tempted to delete them, but if you have the two directories, make sure you check the "USB Driver" one.

If all this checks out, it's all I can come up with - Bill or Corey will have to help you, so, I hope this helps you find the problem.

Jack, I don't know if you're using Vista or not but my PHP driver file shows 14 items. The one that doesn't appear in your list but does in mine is

slabcomm.vxd
