The tweecer interface is a usb flavor

Win98 did not offer usb support

Win98 SE did offer usb

Just wanted to make that a bit more clear

btw ... My old tuning laptop runs 98 se with no issues

I have 32 bit Vista and it works fine but you have to turn off the User Account Control or run Calcon/Caledit as an Administrator. If I don't do that then I get error messages and it won't work.

As a side note, as I am typing this there is an ad in the sidebar for Chevy Camaro. WTF?

don't know about Vista but mine is not liking Windows 7 at all. has been driving me nuts trying to figure it out. I think I'm going to pick up an older laptop w/windows 2000 off of flebay & dedicate it to the stang.
