NCS was the only program to have trouble with 64 bit in the first place. The rest of them were always fine...
Sorry to sound like a dick, but in your signature you're advertising something you've never even tested yourself. Props for uploading everything, it's an amazing database, I'd just downplay the 64 bit thing a little bit until you know that it works. I'd love to get it working myself, so I don't have to dual-boot XP.
It took me about 4 or 5 tries with each disk to get it to finally install. I just selected "Use iso image" in vmware CDROM settings.
One thing I noticed and mentioned a few times before is that mucking with the registry to get a normal shell, as referenced in various guides, results (on my machine anyway) in two instances of whatever shell is set being run. You can see this if you grab the title bar of the "Installing" dialog and drag it to the side. There's another one under it.
I tried it instead by mounting the VMWARE disk image as described, but instead of mucking with the registry, I copied c:\windows\explorer.exe to the directory where the shell is (c:\windows\system32\ifs\install\ ) and renaming instprg.exe to something else, then renaming explorer.exe to instprg.exe. This has the same basic effect in that explorer.exe is run and all the changes can be made, then just rename them back while still running as admin, then when you reboot, it's back to the way it was. This prevents the second instance of whatever shell value is set (I've researched this registry "bug" but I came up with nothing).
I don't have any proof, but I think this may be the reason for some of the problems during installation as I believe that two separate installations are going on at the same time and overwriting each other.

NCS is 16 bit. Dont think it will ever work under a 64bit OS.

I only have one install going on, but it will not install. Have tried to install the base 31, three times and still the same result.
After download from server:
Base 3,1 hack = 1.132.271.616 Byte / 1.05 GB, 787 files in 20 folders
Cd 1 = 4.656.078.848 Byte / 4.33GB, 99 files in 59 folders
Cd 2 = 2.530.492.416 Byte / 2.35Gb, 129 files in 59 folders
Oh, so base31 fails to install? Most of my problems were after base31 finished and requested CD1 and CD2.
Perhaps we should move this discussion to another thread since it is off-topic for this thread.
No, base 31 installs fine, i just reinstall too be sure that it was not the base 31 that made the problem.
has anyone besides the OP successfully used this setup to create the DIS/GT1?

No probs with installing what so ever? On what for Windows?
And for the E61 i think you need version 57, if it's not in the list.
But then coding doesn't work if im correct. Then Progman should be used.
I don't know where to get v57, i'm still searching!

nothing?
Make sure that when you mount the image, the tickbox before Connect DVD or something it says is ticked! Otherwise it wont work!

if i right klick on the cd icon it says connect/disconnect or settings
Choose Connect! If you click on the icon you wile get a screen with the same settings if im correct!

Is anyone working on a bittorrent download of this thing? I don't think I have the patience to sit here all day waiting for the counter to go down... I have a seedbox i can dedicate once i get it downloaded from whoever makes the .torrent file.
Strömung Exhaust // Bilstein Sport/H&R Sport Suspension // Microsuede Interior // 6000k HIDs // Cosmos V2 Intake // Manual ZF Swap // Jim Conforti Chip
is everybody a member of demonoid or torrentleech? i'd put them up there if there were enough members
hm, really strange, it seems not to detect the dvd. on another pc(netbook) it detects the dvd but the installation stops after some hours
(this is not my own screenshot, it should just show where i'm at)
my daemon-tools drive is connected and the progman iso is inserted, windows installs the drivers, the agp warning and nothing more happens
i got an working agp driver, but i still can't get further than shwon in the picture
edit: finally i've made it
i just restarted the whole tut with a new machine^^

alright, next problem,
api-test:
error: illegal version
wtf?!
What's the serial-number for the VMWare, or where can I find it? I've installed the software but when I try to power on the virtual disk it asks for a serial number. Did I not install the software correctly?
