    Question Reading others histograms etc.

    I've recently purchased HPT Pro and am very happy with it's capability.
    I own a Chevy Cavalier with 2.4, LD9 engine and 4t40e, 4 speed tranny.
    I've been doing alot of reading on these forums and love the information but one thing is perplexing my furtherance in learning.
    I can't download the .cfg files that many are using to show their histograms or their configurations of their tune.
    I've got nothing that will open these .cfg files so that I may see them.
    Sometimes, my computer will tell me that I need to put the VCM disc in the drive to interpret the files but that seems silly to have to do just to see something that should already be in the program with proper drivers.

    So this is my question to the people here.
    Any ideas on a program, add on, or plug in that I can download to be able to see these files?
    Thanks.

    Histograms are opened through your scanners histogram window.

    Check out our demos here http://www.hptuners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5058 which walk you through all of those steps.
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    Thanks Bill.
    So I should download and save and then open them up in the scanners historgrams window?
    Sorry for the ignorant questions.
    I'll give it a try here in a short.

    On a different note, is there any chance you could save the .cfg as part of a log file? When I look at other people's logs I'd like to see what config they were using. (It may already do this and I'm just an idiot).
