Okay, Don managed to work his magic on my computer, so I'm back. Blame him!
I managed to reload a bunch of things and my new digi is talking to the computer as it should so all is pretty good. I'll post some pics of my parts, errr car, err whatever it is.
We won't mention the part about the batteries in the card reader being installed backwards by yours truly....
Need to get the car working so I can see if I have 4 speeds reverse and one forward.
Thanks again to Don and Sacha.
