windows seven works fine for the passthru. A internet connection of some sort and buying the subscriptions. when you purchase gm sub you can download tech2win and gds2 and use them with the passthru. Drewtech has the driver to make it work, the lease on the two software downloads only lasts 30 days though. If you have a buddy at a gm dealer that will give a globalconnect login then you can flash and have the software for free as well as service info. Some of the various manufacturers software don't seem to play nice with each other though. I've had to uninstall Honda to get the gm trucks to flash again for some reason etc. -
Good info to know , and I was curious why , so googled it. Here is an article about differences between Home and Pro versions. I would just shut down any unneeded applications you have open on your PC before attempting to download and reprogram anything, to reduce the chance of the process going wrong even if I had Pro or Home Version.

I highly recommend running wired from the J2534 to the PC at minimum. Running wireless from the PC to the internet rarely gives me any issues. But running wireless from the J2534 to the PC can be hit or miss. ESPECIALLY on GMLAN vehicles and Saturn's.Comment
