also i dont think it is dead because the siren still worked as in if i hold the panic button on the key fob the alarm goes off making its usual sounds.

I've got one of these. It works, but getting the software to play with Windows 10 isn't straightforward.

slybunda:
can it be run from a windows 7 or xp machine in a vm?

Probably. The software is quite old and designed for Windows XP I think. I had trouble setting up the USB port. If I remember rightly, it uses one of those dodgy USB to serial/parallel chips.

So did Toad Alarm not offer to help?

slybunda:
Toad alarms said they can sell me a replacement siren which is at a ripoff price. No warranty since alarm comes with 1 year warranty and iv had it for over 20 years.
