Could someone that has the working link already downloaded PM me please..

It is not working for me on 2 different PCs I am trying to use..

One with XP & SP2
the other
Vista SP1.

The USB driver download on the first post in this thread works for XP. Here is the link for the USB driver download for Vista: http://forum.aempower.com/forum/index.php/topic,21900.0.html

FYI-

  I had the same issues with my tuning think pad running windows 2000.
I had to go and uninstall ALL old usb drivers - Too many versions and patches- then install a fresh one.
Problems solved!

Hope that helps-  The Spindoctor!

hello, i have a civic 07 si, i installed the aem fic and a turbo kit, when i connected the fic the car started without problems and then i flashed the unit and after that the engine is being flooded every time i have tried to start it again.  I flashed the fic using the files x300 and z110 (fuel firmware) and i have the 3.04 fic software, if somebody can help would be nice, thanks.

Anyone having problems with Vista 32bit? Can anyone help with driver settings? I am not even able to find com ports in device manager to change them manually.

Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all big heads at AEM!
Why don't you take your time and read 3th party software manual before using it to create your own software?!?!
All problems with connecting to FIC is based on regional setting of the computer/laptop. If someone like me, from Burgundi, trying to use your software with legal Windows and correct set Regional setting result will be "Help me with connecting my laptop to FIC!!! ANYONE?!?!?". But if i change my regional setting to Germany instead my correct place (Burgundi) FIC software will work without any problem!

Try to understand that USA is not the whole world!!! There is other people living outside your illusion paradise, who MAY want to use products made only for chosen one US citizens !!!

So anyone who have problem with FIC software -> JUST change your Regional settings to Germany (other countries may work too, didn't tried, Germany was my first shoot and worked).

Have a nice day!

As mentioned in your thread, here is the to-do list to fix the USB port in Windows 7:

1. Install the FTDI USB drivers provided here
2. Plug provided USB cable into your F/IC and computer
3. Right click on "Computer"
4. Select "Device Manager"
5. Expand "Ports (COM & LPT)"
6. Double click "USB Serial Port (COM#)"
7. Select the "Port Settings" tab
8. Click "Advanced"
9. Change the "COM Port Number" to a number that is below COM16.

Just a note on step 9, usually a number around COM10 is best if all of the 1 through 16 are "in use" since most people don't use that many COM ports at one time.

An updated version of this software is attached in the first post of this thread. Version 2.06 FTDI drivers.
