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.

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.

I found "Universal Serial Converter" under the "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" heading and "USB Serial Port" under "Ports (COM & LPT)" and made sure it was COM4 (use the advanced button under port setting of the properties to change it. I did it on Windows 10 and there were a few hiccups.ġ) There was no Firmwearupdatetool.exe so I had to skip that step.Ģ) The names of the devices were not the same. However, I d/l an even newer version of Techstream, 12.20.024, from this link and followed the directions in the OP in this thread. Just got my cable today (ordered this one for $16) and did not have a CD/DVD drive in any laptop, so I thought I was screwed.
