My partner pulled a file and removed the VATS and when writing back it timed out and failed and wouldn't even go back to the stock file, put a new computer in it and it done the same again. Why would this be failing and wiping out the computer?

The P59 ECM's can be a little finicky. I'd recommend pulling the radio fuse and disabling the Fast Write option. Also need to make sure that the vehicle battery is in good shape. That works 90% of the time on those blue/green computers.
If that doesn't work, you can purchase one of the inexpensive benchtop programming harnesses on ebay. That'll get the job done.
There's also a method to restore your ECM's. Check out this link. https://youtu.be/voJ2knexPrY
