While cool... do you have to register with Oxy-whatever to download? Clicked on it and couldn't find the download at Oxy!

[shogun]

What's the prob. See "Get your file here"?
Just click there and then you will see.

I did not yet download it, as no time now, but should work.

[bbig119]

Downloads are working for me. No registration required. I won't test it till later tonight though.

I just read on another board that it works and all is included till production 2000.

[Triton540i]

Instead of screwing around the downloading the ETK, why don't you just go to RealOEM.com instead... ?????

i have found out, while buying lots of stuff referenced from realoem part numbers, that not all of them are correct.

[Bill R.]

on my machine, much newer than 2000 and they aren't version 3.0

Ok, stupid question time....


what program should I use to unzip the ".rar" file that I get when I download this????


Shareware or something readily available for free would be preferred. My PC has the bare minimum of programs loaded on it, and I sort of like it like that...

I'm skeptical about this version of the etk ,especially when its broken up and zipped up into rar files.

even if it is a virus it will only turn into an exe or something but wont auto launch. put it in its own folder and then you should scan it.

www.rarlab.com
rar provides better compression than zip.

edit: see no problem it being in rar files. everybody have antivirus software these day. Even if you don't scan it before running, the resident monitor should block access to the file. With my antivirus I don't even need to click on a file, openning a folder with a virus is enough for it to display a warning.

Its pretty common to split big files.. Its hard to find a free upload server for files greater than +/- 50mb

that way people with low bandwith can split up the dowload over longer time

[liquidtiger720]

so how do we combine it all and make it work?

[BillionPa]

rar uses a split archive design, so as long as all the parts are named sequentially, the program will extract the common file they contain properly.

[bbig119]

Has anyone tested this yet?

[genphreak]

Has anyone tested this yet?Thanks Erich.

With all of us cheap skates downloading it its probably maxxed out whoever posted it online... depending on the host I guess. Has anyone got the whole thing already? :) Nick

Ever tried it since?

[Qube]

RealOEM works yesterday and does now.

I downloaded the whole thing and it extracts into BMW.ISO. Unfortuantely for some reason I no longer have daemon tools to mount it. I can't reboot (yet) to install d-tools so I'm extracting BMW.ISO with isobuster now.

[Qube]

Seems to install fine. Can't install the components yet because it's not mounted as an image... and when you try to install components, it will search for CD. I'll try later.

[t_marat]

Burnt the image onto a CD and installed, it works.

[SchnellE34]

Burnt the image onto a CD and installed, it works.

Mind sending a copy to me after a paypal transfer for the cd and postage? I am stealing internet off my neighbors so my connection is balls slow.

[yaofeng]

Burnt the image onto a CD and installed, it works.

How many CD's? Just one?

[Espen]

I burnt it on a DVD. Works fine for me also.

[t_marat]

Yeah, just one CD. Actually just 586MB.

Shipping to USA would take at least 2 weeks and cost about 10$. Better for you to buy off Ebay.

[Qube]

Here it is:

[BillionPa]

anyone with NOD32 run a viruscan on the disk after it was burned?

i dont trust norton/mcafee/whatver to tell me its safe.

[liquidtiger720]

I still don't get how to burn it....lol. I extracted the files...and then....how do I mount the iso image? Using Nero 6 btw

[t_marat]

YOu extract the file, BMW.ISO Open Nero Express. Choose "Disc Image or Saved Project". Point to the iso file and its nearly done.

[liquidtiger720]

ok...and how do I install it?

i tried installing some crap...and it just loaded up the interface...but the tis, etc etc wasn't actually loaded?

[t_marat]

First you install the utility called "Sysadm". Then, through this utility, install ETK. When you open the interface, there are menus, one of them is ETK. Open it and click install. Make sure the CD is in the CDROM while you click install.

Same download site ?

If someone has this - we could also setup a torrent - and have it shared across the board. Jeff knows a lot about torrents.

search and you'll see there's a 2006 etk on there. The java based one.

I just had a look, I saw a few for 2006, but what do you mean by java based? which one?!

what is the diff?

These are the ones I found...

[t_marat]

From which program is the screenshot? I usually don't use these kind of P2P programs as they contain lots of spyware.

Usually anything Java based is rather slow.

[SharkmanBMW]

That was from emule...
It works well if you don't download crazy ****, and clean your computer well.

But I hear your concerns, I am off to clean the PC now!

[Bill R.]

old etk to a java based program sometime around early 2005 if i recall correctly. With this java based one you can run one old style etk and one java based one at the same time, which you can't do with the old one. There is more available info on the new java based one as well. Its a little harder to install than the old one was. The menu is different on the new one and if your used to the old menu like i am you'll have a hard time for a while getting used to how the new one works.
