I pressume its one of the ones I sell? If so it uses the FTDI drivers from here ..
http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
Should then show up as a virtual com port under the device manager, provided its below com 10 TP can use it. If its higher than 10 you will need to use this tool to remove all FTDI drivers from the system ..
http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Utiliti ... r_v1.4.zip . Then re-install the drivers.

If the drivers are installed will see something like this once the board is plugged in...

If not, remove the drivers using the utility above. Then re-install them - extract them to a folder on your PC (download the windows 7 driver for 32 or 64bit depending on your system), then plug in the USB board. When it asks to install drivers point the wizzard to the location on your PC of the extracted drivers. Once finished will say the hardware is ready for use.

Are the LEDs on the USB board flashing - should see a solid blue for power and the red and green flash with data when connecting. Should have echo set in the plugin preferences or in the ADX if not using plugin. Have you tried the flashtool?

Try downloading it again and use the TP5 adx in the zip, the one your using is for scannerpro so have converted it now and added to the zip.

No probs glad its working now, the move from scanerpro to tunerpro will take some time for all ADX's to get converted - TP5 actually does convert most of it just misses the send/receive macro normally.
