Setting up on Win7x64

Can someone do an actual recording of setting up coding on a win7 x64 machine and provide links for where the software can be found? Steps to take etc.

I am going to try again after many months of failing to get NCSExpert to run on my windows7 x64 machine. I don't want to use a vm etc. I'm sure 2.12 was x64 compatible.

People must have managed it now that 64 bit machines are so prevalent.

It's killing me!!!

It's very easy, no guides needed.

Download this:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0h...p=docslist_api

Password: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...p=docslist_api

and this if needed:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0h...p=docslist_api

Then just download latest BMW v54 daten files and use 'BMW Coding Tool' to update the sp-daten!

Most of CAN/D-CAN cable using same chip and this is available for x64 now. I was for 2 years on 32bit and just installed win7 x64 and this is working.

Standard tools 2.12 works on x64.

If you want to use other applications you MAY need to use win32 compatibility, I still didn't tested/checked for example diaghead etc ...
