You can find a ASCOM driver on the ASCOM Standars website. It's called as a driver for the LittleFoot Controller but it will work with the MCU Update as well.
Edit:
BTW, even a PEC Tool similar to PemPro is available free of charge.

Hi Rajiva
Just a few quick questions:
- How does the GOTO work exactly? I presume its a normal 2 or 3 star alignment procedure? (Im familar with autostar, and synscan)
- What is your opinion on the original drives in the HEQ5? are they accurate enough for long exposure and high magnification planetary work? (I only ask this because I get the feeling from reading the EQMOD docs that the newer motors are more accurate)
I have a lot of reading and research to do so I don't ask any more stupid questions
