Oh well, the Radio Shack stores have discontinues that cable . Went to Best Buy and bought the Dynex equivalent.

They have that cable at the Radio Shack near me. I guess I have no other choice but to spend more money and go get it. Thanks for the help, Mike.

The Radio Shack cable has a very low rating from customers. The Sewell cable is one that DiabloSport has and has a separate software program for it. FRI isn't going to replace the cable because the cable was given to them by DiabloSport.

Well, after trying to make the current $40 cable work, and it doesn't . I attempted on 2 computers. I should get a refund from DiabloSport for sending FRI a bad cable and then to me, if this is the case, I will have to spend MORE money to get another cable. I think it is a corrupt software program ...

What is the name of the cable?

If that didn't help then I suspect this is a hardware and not a software issue - your cable hardware has gone bad. We have seen cables here where the stress of use on the neck of the cable causes one or more of the internal wires to pull away from the circuit board. If you are computer savvy you ...

Hold on. I Google'd this cable up, and it looks like it uses the generic Prolific chip. Try installing the Prolific driver for XP that we have HERE . Scroll down to the "2. Prolific XP/98 Drivers" link.

I did this last night, but no luck. I will try it again. I again uninstalled the software ...

Just looked on the Radio Shack web page that is on this site and the cable that was sent to me looks like the GUC232A USB/Serial Adapter for Mac. I ordered this from FRI. I guess I have to get an exchange from them. This may be my problem. I don't know.

The USB cable is the one that came with the Predator. It is short with greenish ends. Nothing has changed or have been added. Virus protection and anti-spyware is the same. Every other device that I have can be unplugged and plugged back in with no problem on every USB port I have. I have plugged ...

So it used to work and now it doesn't? Or it never worked?

What type of USB cable do you have?

What version of Windows do you have on your PC? Vista? XP?

Yes, it worked before, driver included. Got an update when I first got it. Once driver was installed, I got what I needed, had no problem ...

I am getting really frustrated uninstalling and reinstalling the driver for the Predator U7136. My Device Manager doesn't recognize it at all now. Also, the updated DSDownloader doesn't and won't recognize the Predator when it is plugged in the USB port. I have followed all instructions that I can ...

So, we would have to check for updates ourselves by visiting the support page of the site instead of DiabloSport sending email notices stating there is an update for the U7136 programmer.

I am curious to how will we know when updates are available for or programmers? When I received the programmer last week to freshly install the tune, there was an update, installed it. Future updates is what I want to know.

BTW, thanks goes to the people of DiabloSport for making the LX V6 3.5 ...

Hoping the tuner would be a great Christmas gift for myself, I deserve it.

I still await patiently for the tuner. But I'm getting antsy.
