Running eCtune on Mac in VMWare
So, i switched to a Macbook from windows and decided to try and see if eCtune will run in VMWare Fusion under OSX snow leopard. so i installed vista, did all the updates, and installed the dot net framework 3.5 as well as the latest FTDI USB driver from moates. Then i got the ostrich license and everything seem to be going fine. i can datalog, and emulate like normal. The only problem is that i cannot \"Get ROM\" form the ostrich. I can upload the ROM and the calibrations, and realtime updates work fine. But when i click \"Get ROM\" i get the following error every time: \"Get ROM failed after 3 tries\" Has anyone successfully gotten something like this to work? (running ectune on windows in a VM on a MAC) I'd really like to get it to work, if not then i guess it's back to windows for me. well just to tune at least.

i dont see why boot camp would work, ur basically running a windows pc if u boot up into it. if i cant get the vm to work i'm probably just going to go that route instead. everything works in the vm, except the \"get ROM\" option, which i guess really isn't that big a deal. chance are you save the cal files anyway so you can just always do a \"open last rom\" from the file menu and that should be the last thing put on the ostrich.
