Customer feedback on CAN CLIP 160 compatible systems:

*** Works on Windows XP

Works only Win XP, if you want you need a virtual machine for use this in win 7 but i never tested this

*** Windows 7, work or not

- Works fine on win7 x86.

- Yes,CanClip runs on Windows 7-x64 and Windows 8....8.1-x64 m because use x-86 files from the system. 

- If your version of Windows 7 Home Basic or Home Premium x64 it is normally not work, try Enterprise or Ultimate , I use Win 7 Ultimate x64 and canclip works very well

- Automatically detect a driver in both win7 and in win7-x86-x64, a kind canclip ALIANCE driver, bosch automotive ... etc..

is absolutely necessary to have all updates made​to the operating system before installation canclip

- i try install in win 7 x64 pc but the driver of VCI not work

- It isNOT working in my Win7 64-bit

- same issue,not working W7 64bit

*** why some CAN CLIP cannot work on Widows 7 64bit?

- The Clip software itself works with 64bit version of Windows 7 but the hardware won't.. Simply because the there are no 64bit drivers for SONDE can clip..

- I think there are no drivers made for 64bit windows...

it works only with 32bit windows

*** What to do if Renault CAN CLIP cannot work on Windows 64 bit?

-Try disable driver signature enforsment in win 64bit..that help many times

- Or just RIGHT CLICK the .inf File and click INSTALL

Then if you get certificate error you can fix that in device manager/

by right click and install certificate even if invalid

- You need to know your can clip is probe (sonde) or alliance.

alliance = works both on 32 and 64 bit os

probe (sonde) = works only on 32 bit os

i think sonde is better than alliance

You can disassemble your CAN Clip and check it on PCB
