General Initial Install Questions

Post by greg77543 »

Hi. I finally ordered a Flash V2. I just watched two tutorials. So I'm clear, the sequence is:

1. download software onto home computer

QUESTION: I HAVE A PRETTY RECENT QUADCORE MACBOOK AIR WITH 8GB RAM SO I ASSUME USING PARALLELS IS OK RATHER THAN A FULL BOOTCAMP WINDOWS V11 INSTALL?

2. turn car on, plug in tablet, lock to that ECU
3. unplug tablet, turn car off, plug tablet into home computer, run Parallels, put software onto tablet
4. turn car back on, plug tablet into ECU again, reflash new software (probably Stage 1) onto car's ECU

ARE THERE ANY NUANCES HERE I'M MISSING THAT MAY CAUSE A DATA CORRUPTION ALONG THE WAY?

Parallels should be fine. Read the help section about the V2.
