Recommended Posts

does anyone know how to interpret the optional extra codes on the inside of the service shedule. there seem to be a lot of 3 figure codes e.g. 4xy and no indication of what they mean

 

cheers

What is it doing? Have you set the res to 1280/1024?

No, but the screen res on my laptop is 1500x something, so I would guess it'll be ok.

 

It keeps coming up with an error message saying "Cannot find ///Fast hard lock device" (or similar). ETKA 5 will install, but won't run, saying hardlock not found.

 

ETKA 6 just comes up with that message straight away and won't even begin the install.

 

I've tried both ETKA 5 and 6, but I have a feeling it's something to do with XP Pro :roll:

 

Any suggestions are worth a go though :)

for ETKA 5 (and probably 6 too) in XP pro you need to run the program in Win 98 compatability mode!

 

(In 2k I could only get it to work with the compatability tool in the Recourse Kit)

:lol: 6yrs (well almost 7) later and we're still running 98 compatability stuff. Hurrah for Micro$oft.

 

I'll go rummage on the microsoft site for it.

Ahh ok, doh. I thought I needed a resource pack to get it to do that. I'll give it a go tonight.

 

You got any ideas on why ETKA 6 won't install/how I can get it to install?

Obviously the patch lead to my completely legal dongle that I coughed up lots of money for and in no way related to any illegal software piracy *cough*.

Ok, ETKA 6 half works over the top of 5 but after removing them both, i'm just getting the hardlock error - not sure if the 'patch' is on the disc or not, can someone give me the details or stick it on the web soemwhere?

No worries, got it sorted now, founf the XP crack on some dodgy site and works fine now.... and doesn't need the compatability mode option like ETKA 5 8)

 

I'll see if it works on 2k tomorrow at work...

And it works fine on 2k too with the same crack! Also looks good on a 19" TFT!

 

Does anyone have a recent price file for it??

Nice one guys, sounds like tonights mission. A price list would be good too, it lessens the number of sharp intakes of breath while on the phone to VAG. And also provides some good comedy :lol:
