Just curious if the EMS software will work in MS Windows Vista.  I'm hoping to get a laptop soon and would like to get Vista with it.  The laptop will primarily be used to tune so if they are not compatible with each other than I'll go old school WinXP.  Anyone have input on this?  Are there people testing this setup?  Will there be a version bump for a Vista version?

Thanks,
-Greg

Vista is supposed to be released to corporate customers soon. It is slated for release to home consumers around the end of January. We have every intention of it being sorted before then. If the current version will not work 100% then we will release a new version that  does.

I've been considering a purchase of AEM EMS for my 95' GSX Eclipse with a 6 bolt, but all the places I've been checking prices they do NOT list XP or Vista as compatable.  I understand AEM is just getting to Vista since it is so new, but is it XP compatible?  I have XP currently on my Mac (Intel chip) and I'm not intending on upgrading to Vista until they get it road worthy!

Yikes didn't think of this one.
I'm running Vista 64 BIT with 2046 MB ram and 300GB worth of dual drives.
Intel Centrino Duo.

Please tell me I will be OK with AEM as I just sold my old lap top.

Update..I have hells of issues with Vista and EMS. I do believe the N2mb has noticed the same problems. Parity errors and Framing errors when you are trying to connect. Also if you leave your laptop on AEMPro and shut your car off the computer will just lock up. Any idea on when AEM will be coming out with an update for Vista??

AEMPro works on Vista, the only issue is the help system does not work because the help system in Vista is differnt than Win 9x/XP/NT.

any probelms with USB/Serial are problems related to your serial adaptor, NOT AEMPro.

You can get an update from microsolft that allows the help menu to work as normal.
