Anyone know if this daten has Eu2 for the Ms43?

it should... i have one somewhere, i think.

VirtualBox is definitely lacking in features compared to its more fully-featured hypervisor competitors. I'm not a big fan of Parallels myself, but at least Adi confirms that it works. VMware does a good job of passing through USB items. I ran this setup on my 2012 MacBook Pro Retina when I had it and it worked very well overall.

VMware definitely does a good job of hardware passthrough - i've passed through serial ports, USB, SAS, heck even HDMI!

the old backup/DR solution we used to use at work used virtualbox on the DR side. it was clunky, but lightweight.

and hyper-v sucks.

I do not believe Bootcamp will boot off a USB drive.

yeah, i agree. don't think it will.

You can run Windows off a USB but its more of a work around to initially get it working.

There are a few guides out there:

Derek, have you had any luck or experience with WINKFP?

im using Mikes Easy BMW tools that supposedly come with V53 Daten files and I see the Date files under NCS Expert and i have 0 issues with NCS or INPA.. but WINKFP never shows me any ECU families. everything I read online says I need to import DATEN files but ive tried importing daten files in WINKFP and it never does it... annoying lol

im trying to flash my MSS54DME with a hacked CSL program and data file but stuck at the missing ecu family issue.

Use the BMW Coding Tool to update the DATEN. It makes it easy as pie and puts all the files in the right places.

i tried that too. i clicked update Daten, when I pointed to the DATEN folder in C:\NCSEXPERT. the coding tool says its not a valid DATEN folder. I tried pointing to the DATEN folder and also just the e46 folder.

im obviously doing something wrong lol

Ah. If using BMW Coding Tool, that isn't the location you have to specify for DATEN files. It's asking you to point to the updated DATEN files you want to import, not the DATEN directory of where they're going to. Point to the folder that you extracted the new DATEN files to.

I think v61 is out now...

I had more luck importing each part into winkfp itself, not using BMW tools.

well i did get the Date updated properly using bmwcoding tools.... i pointed to a new V61 folder that i found online. Still didnt solve my missing ECU family issue ugh...WInkfp still shows 0 ECU families when pressing Comfort mode>choose zUSB.

oh well i will play around with it more. thanks guys,.

Hmm. Do you have anything in C:\EC-APPS\NFS\Data?
Also, within BMW Coding Tool - in addition to "Update DATEN", did you also click "Update WinKFP"?
