Hog 3 and Wysiwyg connectivity questions

A few questions that if answered might help with my current insanity from trying every combination of getting wysiwyg and hog 3 to talk.

1. Can you run the visualiser (wysiwyg) and hog 3 pc on same computer?

2. my current setup:
xp servicepack 3
wysiwyg version 23,
I've installed hog 3 pc (current version)
I've installed hog 3 connectivity driver.
Is this all correct or are there compatibility issues?

3.Is there a preferred order of software setup?
I have been opening wysiwyg which triggers virtual dp / connectivity driver
( set to port 6600, user number 1 )
My show has 9 vl2500's patched,
the device in the device manager is hog3 dp
the universe is bound to universe A,

4. Is there something in dp8000 patch or dmx setup or ip of desk or port settings that i need to worry about

At the moment The Wholehog III DP window always says Locating Wholehog III Net-work but never locates it, wysiwyg will not connect either

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks
Mick


P.s. i have read everything in forums and wysiwyg and high end manuals i could get my hands on and couldnt figure it out

    Hi Matthew,
    I think the loopback was needed in earlier versions of wyg / hog but there is a virtual dp now, i tried installing the loopback but the hog refused to work within the ip range of the loopback adaptor and gave an error to say as much that the ip range of the hog could not be within the range of the loopback.
    I've tried de installing and re installing every component including virtual dp, hog 3 and wys, i've even added paraleels to see if that'd make a change still no joy, please find screen captures of all relevant setting attached am i doing something very wrong or stupid? Also i dont have the ability of using the internal ethernet adaptor of the mac, even though its using this address for the hog and this is the same address set in the ethernet adaptor. See pics attached
    Thanks
