Over the years I have configured a number of machines with versions of EPC, WIS, TIS2000, ECU programmers etc

Along the way I have also been playing with virtual machines (VM's)

Which took me to the point where having I decided to convert an old XP laptop, which is pretty much dead, into a VM. I have then installed it on a cheap HP 8000 small form factor PC that I picked up a couple of months ago for £20. It has a physical serial port  :thumbsup:

I'm delighted to say that I just connected to Tech 2 to it and was able to connect it via TIS2000. Which means I can also use this for security access for the pre ~2008 cars :Fawlty:

If you are a couple of decades behind the times, and would like a Virtualbox VM, I'm willing to share
