Default Datamaster and burnt chip?

Will having a burnt chip in your vette stop the laptop from communicating with it? I hook up the laptop go to capture and it says it lost connection everytime. But when I first hook it up it says it ok. Any ideas?

Me too I have tried to get it to run on my 93 and it won't work. It keeps saying "no sync" ???I have tried everything. I think I need to find windows 98 and try that.

I think it depends on who did the chip. I have a ski chip, a PCM for less chip and a hypertech. Datamaster will read the ski and the PCM but not the Hypertech. Ive heard some burners "fix" the chip to keep one from coppying it.
