Hi, again..i bought an OBD II Interface + the yellow cable to access my Grande Punto Abarth obd. Now i have another problem.

1st, MES won't find this interface..i tried multiple times but nothing. :?
2nd, when i plug the interface on my laptop it won't show up..not a single connection sound either, like nothing was connected. When i connect to the car the leds are going blue, green and then only the 2 in red stay on..but even like this, MES won't see any interface.
and last..
3rd, the drivers included are very old, like...stone age old :D . Where i can find suitable drivers for Win 11? Have any of you had those problems?

Thanks

it's not video card where you update to latest drivers each time they are released.
use included drivers, if those don't work under windows 11 either use older windows or search for drivers using your interface's VID/PID

Thanks for the tip, but i can't use older win editions. The drivers included don't work, the newer ones are for Win Vista....
I'll try with the VID/PID
