now heres the solutions
1 their is a chap who has setup servers to give u an activatiuon code and a software patch and activate for u for a small fee
2 theirs also a diy on the forums to allow u to change the vmware glitch which allows u to get dis up and running
#i can confirm all this works as i lost my activation when i updated windows etc.but u do need a copy of the original bm technic software which i have on a usb stick
and it now works so easy now i have it working in tandem with ncs dummy
Why would you pay for activation codes? All this stuff is available for free on the web.
You just need to install bmw standard tools and update the daten files.
Bm technic like all other packaged products came with messed up daten files anyway so you still had to update them manually.
Plenty of other vendors for uk and romania that sell the package without any code too.

They should have a cable, etc. to meet your needs.
Thanks for the link. Just ordered the cable, can you also recommend a site to download files from. Looking at car360.com but as far as computers and downloading I might as well be looking in a field of thistles, cows arse or something along those lines

I recently got VCDS (vag com) 12.12 up and running for the other half's car. Does anyone know if the vcds(clone) K + d-can cable would work also with inpa? Or am I completely shooting in the dark?
Cheers.

Won't work would be too easy
Cables are cheap anyway no big deal

What's the current state of play on cable & software packages?
