I decided to buy a Dashhawk so I could do some 0-60 runs for performance comparisons and also have a look at my intake air temperature.
Anyway, I bought a used on with all parts off Craigslist. Got a good deal. Plugged it into the car on the ride home and everything seemed great. Well today I went to install the software and couldn't get the drivers to work. After some Googling it turns out that the Dashhawk drivers arent 64 bit compatible.
I called the company and asked why they don't state this clearly on their website. Forget clearly. Why don't they state it at all? It's not on the front page. It's not even part of the FAQ. The answer I got was "There's no more development."
"So you're not supporting the product you're still selling on your own site?"
"There's no more development."
"I think that's pretty dishonest. How are people supposed to know it won't work with their computer if you don't tell them?"
"I'm sorry."
Yeah, I can tell.
If you have the Ultimate or Business version, you can apparently run this in XP compatibility mode, which requires lots of extra (but free) software. It's a pain but it can be made to work. Looks like I need to upgrade my entire operating system if I want to run their software.
