you can have Xp or anyother window (virtual) on windows 7.

If you've got Windows 7 Pro or Ultimate, download and install Windows XP mode. It's a lot quicker and easier than setting up a VM from scratch.

Inpa should work.
Dis, with compatibility mode.... Not sure as you will need vm.

INPA works from the seller I mentioned, but what threw me was that the cable needs to be connected to the car aswell during the driver install - it took a little while, but it eventually appeared as a USB to serial adapter in Device Manager.

If you're really stuck, I'll happily do my best to guide you through it - provided you can get Internet in your car :-)

Hi...I bought this cable

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1707948531...84.m1439.l2649

however it didn't work with my 57 330D E92 (registered September 2007). I am thinking that the cable that you suggest in your previous ebay link might be the cable that I need. Can you confirm that you have had that cable work with your 2007 330D....and if I have understood it correctly you have to install the driver while you sit in the car with the OBD connector plugged in?

And I assume that that cable will work with NCS Expert, SSS and DIS for the re-coding etc not just identifying fault codes as I want mine for getting the digital mph, and coding in a bluetooth module added to the MULF.

Thanks
