As soon as I start VCDS, and go to test the HEX-COM connection (so I can save the settings and go back to the main screen) I click 'TEST' and VCDS freezes up. It freezes to the point where I have to restart the computer (Windows 7) to close VCDS. The computer continues functioning correctly, VCDS Lite has no issues connecting to the interface, but can't connect to the controller. I've tried a cheap KKL cable, and my HEX-COM cable from RossTech, and the issue is the same from both. I've tried running VCDS (full) in XP compatibility mode, but I get the same result. I have 'run as administrator' or whatever checked on both Lite and full VCDS, I've been through the power settings to be sure they say "disabled", everything is up to date. Can anyone help me out? I feel like I'm missing something.
