Continued trouble w/my castle link...
 

I had the castlelink v3.05 on my computer saved. I did notice that the disk had the year 2007 on it and my other discs had 2008 on them. So I uninstalled the program and reinstalled using the new disc and now it will not save it..odd. I am using vista and as stated, I had the programmed saved already.

This all came about from needing to update to v3.12. Every time I linked w/the esc a message would pop up saying that this version is not able to automatically check for up dates. So, I tried to download right from castle the newest version w/the programmed still saved on my computer...a no go... Next, I uninstalled v 3.05 and tried to reinstall it using a newer disc. It would load into the computer, but not save it. Now, as you all know I had to click run as admin. to make this work as I have done before w/no probs. I

When installing, I get the message that there is a problem and the file cannot open...I then go to the castle icon and click run as admin and it runs. As soon as I close everything out, it won't save it

I have 4 castle link discs and have tried them all w/out success. I am wondering if my new virus protection is somehow inter-upting something?

Once the castle link program is open, I can use it, but it requires me to use the disk every time and I cannot get the updates I want....any ideas?

Did you download the latest version from castle?

man deinstall the castle and reintall the last one 3.12 !!

http://www.castlecreations.com/downloads.html

download the this!

I tried all that guys w/no luck!

Update...I got the download directly from castle to work, but, when I hook up the controller w/the program it reads "invalid controller.. you may have software that is newer than what is on your computer....uninstall and reinstall latest version from castle"


Well, I did what they said and still nothing...the program will open, the red lights turn green and then the warning comes up....any other ideas?

Before I launch my computer across the room:diablo: does anyone have any other ideas!!!!!!

This update was supposed to be a 10 min switch, if that....2 hrs. later, no go...ugh!

Another update...now 3.5hrs. into this nightmare...I got the castle down load from their site to load..but...now when I plug it in the software is not recognizing the esc as a castle esc. I even tried to reinstall the drivers via castle instructions...still nothing:diablo:


I quit for tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!:neutral:

I need another BEER!!!

Anyone have any ideas....I sent a e-mail to castle last night so we'll see when they respond. This is really bad timing...I was planning on running this weekend w/my daughter and really need to readjust the controllers.

What ESC are you trying to get to? I believe the MM will not work in vista.

i been having problems also, mine says i have a problem with my installer package

I finally got v 3.05 to stay in the computer and work!:yipi: Now, when I download the new v 3.12 and try to link w/the esc it says invalid controller. At least I can adjust the esc.:neutral:

I am trying to link to the mm esc. I had v 3.05 working before, but, when I went to upgrade, that is when the trouble started

Might have helped if you had posted this in the correct forum - they probably don't monitor this one.

Can you adjust the controllers manually instead?

you need to re install as the administrator right click the install and install as admin, I was having the same problem when trying to check settings on my monster maxx, major pita, melted the plugs off of my batteries because the esc was set to brushed mode and I could not check it:grrrrrr::slap:

I tried that 4 times, w/no luck! That what's was so frustrating to me. I have upgraded to the newer versions 2 other times via Castle's site w/no probs.
For now, I can at least change settings on the esc.

vista sucks ass
:yes:
