To sum up what we did here:
I accidentally saved my PCMCIA card back to an older version.
Using a windows 10 laptop running a virtual machine loaded with XP and connected to the Tech2 with a SERIAL to USB adapter I was able to follow these instructions and load a .bin file that a member was able to save and send to me via file sharing. I am not sure if the writing software would work on windows 10 or not. I used the virtual machine because it was all set up to communicate with my tool through the adapter already.

Concerning that bin image, in the past I've downloaded modual info from my 2001 to check for updates and also data logged some trans pressures from my 2012 for @swathdiver. I don't know if that stuff was saved to the card and might be in that image. It doesn't matter to me, but just letting you know that you might find that info in there.

I will have to look for that in there later.
