Hi All,
Just received Techstream last night and installed on my 64 bit computer. Install was not plug and play, but it is quite doable.

Since I am expecting to use Techstream quite a bit, I thought I would start a thread. For future Techstream users, here are the instructions I used to get the software connected to my vehicle for the 64 bit application:

TIS Techstream V10.10.018 Setup Instruction ( !!! for 64 bit system !!! ) :


1. copy '' Program Files (x86) '' folder to drive C:\ , tick '' replace all current items ''

2. plug the Mini VCI cable into USB

3. Open the Device Manager and locate two failing devices in the list. Both will appear with yellow icon (usually under ''Other''), indicating that Windows failed to install drivers for them. Now, right click each failing device, select Install Driver, then ''Browse my Computer'' and locate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\XHorse Electronics\MVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS" (enable the ''include subfolders'' flag). Click ''Next'' and wait until drivers are installed.

You should now see two new devices: ''Universal Serial Bus Controllers\USB Serial Converte'' and ''Ports (COM & LPT)\USB Serial Port (COMx)''.

4. Run the FirmwareUpdateTool.exe from the "C:\Program Files (x86)\XHorse Electronics\MVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS". Click ''Device Info'', You should see the ''Device connected'' screen.

5. Now install Techstream software using "Techstream_Setup_V10.10.018.exe" on our software CD

6. Software Registration: copy the two *.ini files in ''Registration'' folder to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Toyota Diagnostics\Techstream\Env\
* Attention: It's C:\Program Files (x86) not C:\Program Files\ , BIG DIFFERENCE !!!

7. Registry Hack: Run the mvci-64bit.reg file to modify the registry for Techstream to recognize MINI-VCI under Windows x64

8. Run Techstream. Go to Setup | VIM Select menu and select the ''XHorse - MVCI''

11. Connect Mini VCI cable to your car‘s OBDII interface, turn ignition on, then click ''Connect to Vehicle'' in Techstream. Wait. Then wait again. If everything works, you will be prompted to confirm car year/model after which you'll get to the diagnostic interface.



* Important Note:
1. DO NOT change the "User Type" when you will run your TIS Techstream for 1st time! LEAVE IT with the Default option! "Official" Dealer/Repairer with other words...
2. in [ VIM Select ] option, please select the [ Xhorse - MVCI ], not [ TIS Techstream VIM ]
3. If you get the following reminder while using the program:
----------------------------------------------------------------
Register Techstream Software (S314-03)
Network connection is unavailable. A network connection is required to use Techstream software.
You can only connect 29 more times without a network connection before software registration is required.
---------------------------------------------------------------
You can reset that as following steps:
Go to C:\Program Files\Toyota Diagnostics\Techstream\Env and find ''IT3usercustom.ini'' file and look for ''Connectioncount=1'' or what ever number of times you tried and just delete ''connectioncount=1''. Click save and you should be reseted back to 30

Appears that Techstream can "test" whether the sensors in the picture below are functioning correctly. Seems like this could be useful. For example, I am currently running a p0441 and would be nice to check Vacuum Switching Valve. Thoughts?

 

Very cool! I have the older version of this that runs on XP and I love it! Been handy to have around when lights have popped on and whatnot to pull the codes. Best part is finally being able to change the personalized settings.

Have you run any of the active tests on it yet?
