It will scan windows update, and for me this part of the install took almost 45 minutes for whatever reason. Now wait for it to find and auto install the driver for it. (This also installs the GM MDI driver for you)Ĥ) Connect the USB cable to your PC and the VXDiag hardware you bought from Amazon. It is located in the “Tech2Win” folder and named “AutoInstall”. Again, be patient and let it completely finish the install.ģ) Install Tech2Win. You may get an error about a missing “MDI driver”.
All of the software you install will be installed on your normal Windows PC, NOT in the VMWare instance.Ģ) Install the VX software “VX Manager” (the VX software is for the diagnostic connector that connects to the car, and takes the place of GM's MDI). This is just installed with an image file that the other software accesses behind the scenes. Also, never open the VMWare program itself. I make no claim of writing it! Just re-formatted for easier reading.īefore you begin, make sure you do NOT have the VXDiag hardware you bought from ******* connected to the computer!ġ) Install the VM software “VMware-player”. I found this very good description of getting things setup and running, and thought I should share.
