First of all you must be able to use Carsoft, and INPA already. If you have not figured out how to get those working: Go back and work on them, SSS will not work without those working.
Required Software: (Don't even bother asking me where to get them, I do not know)
·VMWare 6
·SSS Base 3.1 hack ISO
·BMW Progman v.28
·Changes.iso
How To Install SSS Progman v.28
- If you don’t have VMWare installed, install it with the default options.
- Install INPA and be certain that it works by following my guide
- Open VMWare and create a new Virtual Machine
- Select Typical:
- Select Microsoft Windows, Windows XP:
- Give your virtual machine any name you like
- Select Use Host only networking:
- Make your disk a substantial size, but no need to allocate it all now:
- Your Virtual Machine is created:
- Now you must edit the virtual machine and remove the USB controller, and the sound adapter. Also increase the memory to 1Gb and adjust the Ethernet adapter to use VMnet1
- Edit the properties of the CD drive to open the SSS Base 3.1 hack ISO:
- Now start the virtual machine and you will see this:
- Once it completes, it will insist that you eject the CD:
- Double-click the CD icon in the lower-right portion of the VMware window, and change the CD form the ISO to your actual CD drive, so you can press the eject button, and continue the process:
- Press the eject button on your CD drive, and the VMware image will now load with Windows XP as the O\S, and will prompt you for the Progman installaton disc: DO NOT PUT IN THE PROGMAN DISC!!
- Stop the VMware server.
- Double-click the VM hard drive
- Select Utilities > Map
- Select the first partition, uncheck read-only and press Ok.
- Open Regedit
- In the Registry Editor, Click File > Load Hive
- Browse to the file Z:\Windows\System32\Config\Software
- Give the hive a name like BASE31
- It will show up in the registry
- Browse to BASE31\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Winlogon
- Find the value of SHELL and double-click it
- Change the value to Explorer.exe
- Collapse the folder tree so that BASE31 is highlighted
- Click File > Unload Hive.
- Close registry editor
- Return to VMware, open the properties for the hard drive and select Utilities > Disconnect
- Start up the Virtual Machine and it will load into Windows. Ignore any messages about installing new hardware.
- Click-Start > Log-off
- Log back on as Administrator and use ++Xs4Progman as the password
- Open Control Panel
- Open Administrative Tools
- Open Component Services
- Choose services, and find the Progman AOS service
- Open properties for the service, and stop the service
- Return to Control Panel, and open the “System” applet
- Go the hardware tab, and open device manager
- Install each of the devices that have the yellow question mark, except for the “Unknown Device”
- Close Device Manager
- Return to Control Panel and open the Display applet:
- Adjust the resolution to 1024x768
- Close Display Properties

- Enter 192.168.68.1 for the Gateway
- Just leave the Printer info blank and press continue
- When you see this screen, simply press continue
- Enter 12345 for Dealer Number, you can make up the rest of the info:
- Click Finished
- Please Wait
- Windows Shuts down, and attempts to reboot
- Power Off the Virtual Machine, we are not quite ready to run Progman yet:
- Once again open the proerpteis for the hard drive and click Utilities > Map:
- Map the first drive, (remember to remove the read-only checkmark)
- Open Regedit
- In the Registry Editor, Click File > Load Hive
- Browse to the file Z:\Windows\System32\Config\Software
- Give the hive a name like BASE31
- It will show up in the registry
- Browse to BASE31\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Winlogon

If the command window does not open, and instead you see the contents of the drive, double-click the file sss_stage2
- Press any key to continue
- You’ll see the following screen, and again press any key to continue
- Reboot the VM (Start > Shutdown >Restart)
- While you wait for the VM to restart, launch IFHSrv32.exe from the C:\EDIABAS\Bin folder.
- Progman is up for the first time finally
- Click on Administration and the following screen appears
- Click on interfaces and you see this screen:
- Click on External Interface, and click Add
- Enter 192.168.68.1 for IP address and press continue
- It takes you back to the interface screen, so just click on Home
Using Progman with your BMW
- Connect your interface cables and verify that Carsoft, and INPA can communicate with the DME
- In SSS\Progman, click on New Session and you should see this:
- Highlight the interface by clicking on it, and press continue
- Enter any name that you would like for the session and press continue
- Continue by selecting your type of car (I am connecting to a 2001 325xi, so I selected 3 series > E46):
- Then you should see this screen, it takes a few minutes to get through:
- You should see this screen eventually
I’m only going to show you how to adjust key and car setting, because that is what you are after. Coding modules is beyond my expertise anyhow
- Click on CKM
- You see this screen, … for a little while
- You now see all the settings that you can adjust on your car, cool!
Click on the individual items like “daytime running light to get a brief description of the adjustment”
- Once you have made all of your desired adjustments, press the Encode button
- Your new settings are now saved, and you have saved yourself a trip to the dealer and the cost of the labor they would have charged you to make these adjustments.

Sweet, now I gotta find I MEAN PURCHASE copies of progman and SSS
This thing is pretty nifty. I confirm it works. Same basic concept as the programming in DIS, but seems to run a bit better. Maybe a bit more robust...
Was tooling around....and accidentally reprogrammed my General Module. lol
It confirmed it did it, and all is well.
Whew.
Nice write up J.

Hello.
I have some problems withs SSS Base 3.1 Progman V32
Early I have installed:
INPA 5.0.2
VmWare 6.5
GT1 + DIS v57.
Everything works fine.
Now in VmWare i have installed SSS Base 3.1 and Progman V32 like described.
So, l am loading ifhsrv32.exe, turning SSS/Progman on.
Everything looks fine, like described abowe.
But it is one problem, than I connect the cable to car, and trying connect to her, SSS/Progman give me this window:
I have looked some network settings:
Maybe there are some problems?
When I was instaling and configuring this SSS/Progman software, I now, that I needed to do this settings, and I did this:
But after I finished the installation, the network settings looks like in pictures above.
Please help to slove the problems
Is your car turned on?
Oh, your network settings may be wrong, that 169.254.x.x address occurs when an adapter can';t communicate with a DHCP server. VMware should be running a DHCP server on your system to set your IP addresses dynaically. IF you don't want to enable it, just set your VMnet1 adapter with a static IP of 192.168.68.x

Thank you. You were right. That helped for me.
Today tried to play some things with SSS/Progman
Everything working fine.
I have one more question, how did you solved requirments of 13V power supply?
Connected external power supply or did some changes in software?

Hi Randomy,
I have same issue as like fucis. Below is the SSS-Network IP address, 169.254. 29.6
So I clicked the "Network" and below is the screen.
I am wondering why the IP address in this page is different than the IP address in the above picture? My program is pre-installed and sent from the yellow diag. head vendor.
I try to followed up your steps to set the SSS up and make it work, however, I have trouble to make it work. Helps.
having the same network issue
Couple questions:
1. Can I use Progman v44 with this? I can't seem to find V28 anywhere.
2. Can I use this setup to easily disable DRLs on my E46?
3. Is INPA/EDIBIAS absolutely needed to make this work? I have CarSoft and it works very well
Thanks

I compiled all the instructions from randomy post, and i made a tutorial that you can download, and also made a prepared virtual disk with all the needed modifications so that you only need to install progmand, and use the changes.iso!
I will now post the needed files for both versions!

Hey hey hey...U r the man
I've been looking all around for progman 32 in small pieces...already have v28 running and was curious to see v32, but the only version I found is 700MB files on a slow site (deposit files) so was really hard to download...
Really thanks, and great effort...
Well now that I have INPA , DIS running I thought I'd give this a shot.
Everything good right up until I've selected E46 in model selection.
Then it says communications between diagnostic system and radio head is disturbed.
Inpa works and Dis works .....
I am running IFH service and the Ediabas file is set to OBD STD etc ...
Any ideas?
have somebody tested these files from ViperRunner ?
Dont really want spend a week to download them and see they are not working or all is in portuguese
The way the virtual machine is set up it locks you out of everything. You have no access whatsoever and I cannot figure out how to become an administrator.
Therefore it does NOT allow you to run changes.iso
you need to logon as administrator and elevate the rights of the workuser to administrator. These steps are listed above and I'll point them out for you again, but you really need to read my directions more carefully:
- Start up the Virtual Machine and it will load into Windows. Ignore any messages about installing new hardware.
- Click-Start > Log-off
- Log back on as Administrator and use ++Xs4Progman as the password
- Open Control Panel
- Open User Accounts Applet
- Click on WorkUser
- Select Change Account Type
- Make this account a Computer Adminsitrator
Randomy is the man, so read well his indications and don't worry, that the Progman i posted is multilanguage!
Best regards
Hi there
So, if i use your instructions ViperRunner to install the SSS Program, all i would need to add in addition would be what randomly added which was:
- Start up the Virtual Machine and it will load into Windows. Ignore any messages about installing new hardware.
- Click-Start > Log-off
- Log back on as Administrator and use ++Xs4Progman as the password
- Open Control Panel
- Open User Accounts Applet
- Click on WorkUser
- Select Change Account Type
- Make this account a Computer Adminsitrator
Am i correct? Already have INPA/ DIS working, might as well get this project up and running too.
Hi again,
That instructions are already on the original instructions from randomy that i compiled on the pdf tutorial, and the easier version o also posted, that is supplied with the virtual hard disk has already the hardest modifications done! just follow well the instructions on the pdf tutorial, acording to the version you download!
best regards
