VCI-100, I went McGyver on it, now wont start. Posted on: 11.09.2010 by Suzette Rybka HiToday I'm a very, very sad person, so please bear with me. As the title tells you I did something stupid. I just got a new VCI-100 here in Europe at quite a good price. It's a silver one with old firmware, and it was working fine when I got it. I figured it'd be cheaper to buy it here and get the firmware upgrade kit + a black overlay from DJTT separately. Upgrade kit arrived, but to my great disappointment there wasn't a serial cable to be found anywhere in the region where I live (southern Portugal).

Sherika Lasee 29.12.2010 | Awesome you got it working, in which case it wouldn't be adding insult to injury to correct the Title from McGyver, he'd make something cooler out of it, i'd say you went more McHannibal Lector. - all in good fun |
Suzette Rybka 03.10.2010 | So, after re-connecting my VCI-100 to a Windows 7 PC using the serial-serial cable and following the DJTT step by step youtube guide for firmware upgrade, my controller is now 100% functional with the 1.4 firmware. Conclusion: if the fw-upgrade gets interrupted midway, the VCI-100 wont work until a full fw-flash has been carried out. |

Also I had a problem when I did mine of the software crashing and switching to a different cable seemed to do the trick.

Leeanna Ayla 11.09.2010 | Have you tried changing the delay using the FDTAdvancedSetup.exe file? |
Peg Yant 11.09.2010 | im believeing the vci might still work because i have just failed to do the upgrade and renesas says its complete then shuts down with a windows error and now my vci has no power either. i searched and theres a few threads on this but im still unable to get mines working. only problem you seem to have thats different form my situation is that you opened up a computer and fried it, whereas i just used a cable! haha! |
