Changing wheels

[Harv]

I sympathize, Richard, but if it makes you feel any better, I would be more lost than you are on a Windows machine. Most of my 'puters are Macs and I know my way around Unix, but when/if my one Windows system craps out, I'm gonna call on you!

Hi Harv,
I finally got it working. You are not going to believe the two problems. It wasn't the drivers at all!!! I finally got someone at support that knew what they were doing. It had an error message for the scanner and wouldn't let the software load. They originally told me it was the software. This guy said oh well there's a white button in here under there around here you have to switch and it should work. Did that and it loaded with the ORIGINAL software. Then it wouldn't connect. Well it turns out that the surge protector would not allow it to draw enough power to power up! Go figure. What a nightmare though. I really hate hooking up new equipment.

Wow, Richard!

I wouldn't have guessed that one in a million years.

Is that an external surge protector with too much stuff on it, or one that's just plain too sensitive? You can only hope that it works that well when a real power surge comes along.

Well, all's well that ends well. At least you found the problem and can now deal with it.

I guess this all has little to do with changing wheels on a tractor, but I bet there's a bunch of folks out there who were enlightened by your computer experience.

rdln; I bench about 400, and I would fool with one of those tires with out some assistance., But when i was 23, I probably would have tried it!

It sometimes helps to get a couple of bolts, same size and thread pitch as the OEM wheel lugs, cut the heads off and use them as locater dowels on the wheel flange. Double blade your hacksaw and cut a screwdriver slot on your made stud for quick R&R.

George,
That is a really good idea. I should have thought of it since that is what I have been doing for years to help align the transmission on my Corvette. I used to struggle for hours on my back trying to get the transmission lined up until I bought a couple of long bolts and cut the heads off. Since then it has been fairly easy to do the job if you can call working under a car on your back with a tranmission on your chest easy.
