eper

[Alan.D]

I was given a very late eper disc earlier by the dealers as I was in for parts but told it had expired? It appears now that the late part discs expire after about 6 mths. The disc has an expiry date of 15.11.2006.

Anyway I thought I would load it and see and right enough it comes up as error disc expired. Is there a way that a file can be removed and the disc will work as normal? I'm going to see if I reset the computers date if that will work and report later.

Any other idea's.....as the disc was given by the dealer I'm not worried about the legality of it.

Thanks in advance.

Get version 20.. doesn't need the CD :chin:

Possibly a way, can you post up the file contents of the disc in a screen grab?

Ok i've changed the computer clock date & that has made it work so what can i do to fool it into thinking it's a couple months ago permanantly?

Get version 20.. doesn't need the CD :chin:

This is version 27 and includes the brera and every other model of fiat inc the cinq 126 etc.

Liam I'll give it a try but can't post pics

Liam tried print to screen but doesn't work

 

[Liam]

I've done this before with a Land Rover EPR, on some you modify a text file which alters the dates the cd looks for.

The only way I can think of.

Alan, you press Print Screen - nothing works, yet, because you need to go into Paint and press Paste - and voila, a screenshot

ePer, version 21 onwards, had all this hassle as well - I gave up with version 23, and just resorted back to 20. But good to know the date trick works. You just need to upload it now

 

[Alan.D]

Changing the date makes it work but makes the computer throw a wobbly with the virus checker etc, it confuses the forum as well and doesn't seem to recognise some posts?

if you try and do what Liam says I might be able to do something, it all depends on how it works. its a HTML front end is it not?

 

[Alan.D]

I have tried that but it won't follow as instructed, what file should i be looking for?

Thanks for the help.

 

[Liam]

Alan, explore the content of the cd or dvd via my computer, hold down alt and press prt scr then open paint and choose paste, save as a jpeg then add to a post here via the manage attachments tab.

Liam

 

[Stu DemonD]

Obviously he can only attach once attachments are working again :spin:

 

[Liam]

Ah forgot, erm photobucket or linked from BMW site?

Liam

 

[Alan.D]

Was pressing the function button instead of the alt :bang: thanks Liam. The attatchment should be sorted by tomorrow will post then, thanks again

 

[Alan.D]

Ok went down the photobucket route as the attachments are still down. BTW even if I load the full disc 1.6gb I still have to insert the disc for it to work.

Anyway these are the files

 

[Liam]

Can you find any notepad or txt files on there?

Try to uninstall, reboot, set BIOS clock to some ridiculous future date, say 2020, load up windows, install, reboot, put date back to normal, and hopefully it will last you for many years to come

if it works wanna look up a part and price for me?
