Chip Burner doesnt work on vista...

[OregonStroker]

So I finally got my chip burner today and I was really excited to mess around with it. I get it all hooked up and pop the cd in the computer. It doesnt work? So I call TS and find out that the software doesnt work on Vista. Damn.

Looks like Im gonna have to find an old used computer with XP....

Dude - Nothing works on Vista (that's why MS abandoned it just like they did WinME)

Nope a TS burner will not burn a DP chip. To burn on a DP chip you need a Moates burner

DP chip


The TS chips vary in colors depending on the printing the vendor requested on the board

Do they all say "TS"? I am about to go pull it out right now.

Some do some dont. Depends on the vendor the chip was purchased from.

Thanks so much for your help Dave! I finally got it out and its identical to the first pic you posted. It doesnt say TS but its unmistakably the top pic. Thanks again. Now I just gotta find a XP computer... The old TS Pro software wont work with Vista.

I have one but it needs the plug that the power cord hooks to in the back fixed. Even has a powerstroke.org sticker on it
