trying to put map on my megajolt for 20 zetec and having probs when it tells you to send map it comes up at bottom of screen port could not open anyone have any ideas why its driving me mad many thanks ian
another program is using the com port!
close all other running programs (mobile phone software etc)
check bottom right corner of your screen (if your on xp) see if anything is running there

is it set to the correct com port.
With the megajolt plugged into the laptop - go to device manager and find what port the megajolt is plugged in to.
Then go to the menu on megajotl software and set the com port.
I have to use a usb to serial converter and have 4 usb ports on the lap top. Each time I use it I have to set the megajolt to the correct com port.

no it wont let you read off or put on i am also using adapter for usb dose this change things
Is megajolt working i.e is it controlling the ignition advance or have you not tested it on the engine yet. I had this problem (not tested on engine)
and in my case I had the rom and transistor array in the wrong sockets.
1st thing to do is see if it works on a computer with a serial port to elimate the USB adapter.

is the megajolt connected to a power source?
Okay 2nd thing to do is see if it works on a computer with a serial port to elimate the USB adapter.
yes it dose have power and we are trying to test it on car not yet had it running on ecu and the adapter is fine i had it tested erlier at shop as we dont have anything hear that will take serial port once again thanks for help but still no luck lol
now its saying time out reading cylinder count still wont let you do any thing 
MY lap top at wotk will only recongnise some things if they are connected BEFORE the computer is turned on. Try restarting the computer with the
megajolt connected and powered up
ps 3 pints of beer and typing is getting hard
no worries thanks for your time i try that
