Default Firmware Update Error

I have not used my vag cable in a while and I just currently downloaded the newest software and was instructed to update the firmware on the cable. every time I try and update the cables firmware it errors. Why would this happen? I am running vista by the way using my MacBook via Parallels.

Is there another way to update the firmware besides having it hooked up to the car?

Default No, it needs to be connected to a car.

Do you have any PC's that you can try using? If you run into difficulties, free to call us at 215-361-8942 from 9am-6pm EST M-F while you are in front of your PC, connected to a vehicle.
