    How does this site work


    How does this site work? I see multiple download buttons and when I select the one that looks like the file download, it prompts me to login via some social media account.

    It's best to just go ahead and create an account with 4shared.
    Didn't used to have to go through all this other bs to download via the "free" download option.

    I downloaded these files and part 1 will extract ok, but part 2 and 3 will not extract. I tried downloading them via direct download and also via my own account.

    Any thoughts why they will not extract?

    Have you had any success? I tried to extract all 3 .rar files and they all failed. File 1 made it almost to the end. 2 and 3 failed immediately.
    I am still searching for a good download of INPA to use as a simple diagnostic tool.

    The files need to be extracted using WinRAR - parts 2 and 3 will auto-extract when you begin extraction of part 1. If you are still experiencing problems, email me.

    I can't get INPA to work for Windows 8.1, EDIBAS works, INPA lists a bunch in my apps but nothing seems to open. Anything I should be doing here? Nothing really looks like the actual program either, INPA.IPO, INPA.IPS, and INPA Compiler look the most promising but none are working. I tried setting INPA Compiler to run with XP settings but it still didn't work.

    What car is it and what cable are you using? Did you modify window environment?

    00 528I and the blue VAG cable

    It's not a connection problem, I just can't get the program at all. I'm not sure what you mean by "modify the window environment," but I set whatever INPA programs I could find to XP compatibility mode of that's what you mean but still can't get anything open.

    I had installed a different version I found online previously that worked fine and wouldn't connect(probably my fault) but I uninstalled that before trying the three part one on here, the INPA app icon isn't there though with this install except the ones described in the last post, which don't really look right.

    Search for INPA(.ipo). Try to open it.
    I am going through the same issue right now. INPA will not open for me. EDIABAS seems to be fine but I am only interested in reading DTC's right now so I am focused on getting INPA to work.

    I get a prompt that essentially says 32bit INPA will not work on my 64bit windows7.
    Lots of things to look for but I am getting more and more confused the deeper I dig.

    The problem is with your operating system - it does not support the software. This is a Microsoft thing as earlier operating systems had a WOW64 addin to ensure compatibility with 32 bit software.

    also, if you find the program(s) are running slow while in xp mode, allocate at least 75% of your memory.

    Do google search for windows 8 xp mode. The first link (howtogeek.com) explains how.

    I got that all working buuuut, it does exactly the same thing in XP for me.

    Here's what I've got(including the ones on the desktop), and it shows the same file list in Windows 8

    EDIT: Do I need 3.01 first?

    If you have just installed the v5.0/EDIABAS 6.4.7 update, then yes, you need to install v3.01 first. BMW did not release all files with the v5.00 update so you need to use some from the initial v3.01 installation.

    ok so i'm trying to revive an old thread here. I have just used the links to download the 3 sections on the first page of this post. I have extracted them using WinRAR but now i'm at a loss as to what I do next. When I extracted the files it said they were all the same.

    Burn the extracted .nrg file to a disk using Nero, then follow this ENGLISH SETUP.pdf

    Thanks David Mc for the info I have done all that but sadly when I try to open INPA (_.IPO) I get the following message.

    "The version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you're running. Check your computers system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the programme, and then contact the software publisher."

    any my idea what I need to do next.
