My MINI VCI (http://www.obd365.com/wholesale/mini-vci-for-toyota-tis-techstreamsingle-cable-freeshipping.html) cable arrived several days ago, as user manual suggestion MINI VCI is supposed to
work it with Windows XP, but to contrary the popular belief, I get it working under Windows 64-bit and
would like to share the instructions, I hope it will save someone a headache of dealing with dual boot
and virtual machines with Windows XP.
Package:
MINI VCI cable for TOYOTA TIS Techstream, Ive bought mine from OBD365 for around $30. The
cable is about 4 long, with a box and MINI-VCI J2534 Standard OBDII Communication Interface
sticker.
The cable comes with a mini CD with drivers and Toyota Techstream software; it is advertised as

(http://www.obd365.com/wholesale/cbay-car-keycopy-programer-4d-46-48-chips.html)

Newest V8.30.023. The newest refers to the version of bundled Techstream, rather than the cable
firmware.
My Windows 64-bit Computer:
A laptop running 64-bit version of Windows 7/8. Mine is actually Windows 8 x64, but for Windows 7
the configuration procedure should be identical.

If you see this, it means your MINI VCI is up and running under Windows x64 and can be used by
other programs, such as Techstream.

IMPORTANT: Some people have reported that updating firmware on this cheap clone cable may
render it dead. So, the Firmware Update Tool should not be used for anything, but checking that the
device is connected and working properly.
2. Now install Techstream software using Techstream 8.30.023.exe and then update to 8.10 with
Techstream_Update_V8.10.021.exe. Do not launch it yet.
To activate it, copy the IT3System.ini you extracted before to C:\Program Files (x86)\Toyota

3. Registry Hack: for Techstream to recognize MINI-VCI under Windows x64, the Registry has to be
modified as:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

So far, I tested the cable with 2013 4Runner, 2004 Sienna and 1997 Camry LE/4cyl, and it seems to
work fine with all of them. Absence of (L) line connection means no support for ECU re-flashing
(which is not something Im comfortable doing myself anyway). Option customization/clearing DTC is
possible (already verified).
Overall, not bad for a $30 gadget, in my opinion.
