Hello, I recently bought a car that was equipped with a Holley Commander 950 system, unfortunately the man I bought the car from had lost the software for it, and I was just wondering where the best place to get it was. SO far the cheapest I've seen for just the software is $90, is there anywhere better, or any place where I can just download it instead of waiting for CDs to get mailed to me?

 

I presume you checked with Holley? cant download off their site?

 

The only thing I could find on their site was to buy the CD for $90

 

Nevermind, Think I may have found something

But it says it's not compatible with windows Vista or & (I'm running 7) I'm not the greatest with computers can anyone help me out?

 

Chances are their software won't be compatible with anything other than XP or earlier. To my knowledge that platform hasn't been updated in quite a few years.

I have a buddy that had one of those on a 496 BBC before he scrapped it, I'll see if he still has it.

Quite frankly I can't believe they want to charge you $90.00 for the software, that sucks.
Just curious, what's the application?

 

Well the $90 is for the "Pro" version of the software, the have the regular software available for free download which I have, but like I said it doesn't work on Windows 7, so I'm just trying now to figure out how to make the program work on my computer.

What I downloaded is the software about halfway down this page:

You don't want or need the Pro version anyway. It's worse than the regular one in that it only fires the injectors once every 2 revolutions instead of twice. Even that isn't great because it fires all 8 at once.
It says right there that it's not compatible with 7 or Vista so I guess is you'll need a laptop with an older operating system. No sense in beating your head against the wall. Again the C950 is a bit antiquated by todays standards.

 

There are fixes to the Windows 7 and vista(mine). It involves "run as administrator". that is all I know. search that phrase and you will see several threads on it.

 

I think that you will find that more Holley users (and a rep. or two) hang out over @ the Chevytalk EFI forum. There aren't many problems with that old system they haven't hammered out, good luck.
