Resetting "Adaptive" Values after IACS replacement.

Resetting "Adaptive" Values after IACS replacement.
Ok, so as some might know, I had to replace my IACS after the idle went high.
Easy enough until I went to find an independent shop to reset the adaptive values. They tried to baffle me with bull .
As chance would have it, ropertf on DiscoWeb (http://tinyurl.com/hccqx4g) wrote a program to reset the values about the same time. It works on both Win and Mac. I used an old XP laptop and this: https://www.scantool.net/obdlink-sx/.
It worked great. For about 150 miles. Did it again. Lasted for about 300 miles. Did it a third time. Lasted about 1,500 miles. That was three days ago.
Think I might get set up with a bluetooth thingy and just hit a button on my phone. Also, I can't rule out some intake, plenum gasket leaks. Wee as they may be.
Overall, I am still giddy that I don't have to take it somewhere for this.

I can't get this to work on my Windows 10 Pro computer. Any ideas?
Edit: Tried it on Windows Vista 32Bit and Windows 10 Home as well, still no luck with either program. Just says COM STATE ERRORConnected to:com4
If anybody knows how to fix this, that would be great because I am stumped and really need to get rid of my FMFR and AMFR codes.

On this page are the steps I took to get it to work on mine: https://discoweb.org/showthread.php?...ferrerid=26432
Install driver for scanning cable
find port used
run program in command prompt by getting to the directory with the gems.exe executable and run "gems com# reset"
but every time I do that, nothing happens
The program that came with the cable works with my D1
Is there something else that I'm missing or something that I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
