A laptop running 64-bit version of Windows 7/8.The “newest” refers to the version of bundled Techstream, rather than the cable firmware, as cable shows serial number “MVCI006000001” and firmware version 1.4.1, which is widely known as “cheap clone of the original XHorse MVCI cable”. Mine was advertised as “Newest V8.00.034 MINI VCI for TOYOTA TIS Techstream Diagnostic Cable & Software”. The cable comes with a mini CD with drivers and Toyota Techstream software. The cable is about 4’ long, with translucent casing and “MINI-VCI J2534 Standard OBDII Communication Interface” sticker: I‘ve bought mine from Amazon for around $30. MINI VCI cable for TOYOTA TIS Techstream.So, I decided to share the instructions, which hopefully will save someone a headache of dealing with dual boot and virtual machines with Windows XP. As it turned out, with little manual tweaking it is possible, contrary to the popular belief, to get it working under Windows 64-bit.
Recently I‘ve got myself the MINI VCI cable to play with.
