I've been trying to cure a stumble on my old '86 Vette now for a month now. Unfortunatly, without a scanner I'm shooting in the dark. I've had a DIACOM for years and I dusted the box off last week.

Well I've spent the last two days trying to get this thing to link from an old Panasonic Toughbook w/Win98. I'm working directly in DOS and I've tried every Parallel port configuration I could find; still NO LINK. I think (hope) it boils down to my DIACOM version 2.5 being too old and I need version 2.7or newer to handle my CPU's speed.

Does anybody have any insight to this? Could someone burn me a copy of 2.7 or new? DIACOM wanted $79.00 bucks to upgrade back in 1993 which I thought was kinda outa line back then If I can't do this cheaply I'm throwing this thing in the trash and going Moates for $50.

 

I have to take a look at mine laptop.
I thinking it might be a problem in the config.sys or a win.ini file

 

Thanks man, anything would help at this point. I'm starting to pull what's left of my hair out

 

Honestally toss that diacom out the window its old news and was good back in the days it came around..
