Please, find this thread, if it helps - at the end are steps for VMWare installation https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-ro...stic-tool-for-evoque-td4.391137/#post-5678913
Also you can have files needed for installation from me, if you don’t have those

Virtual machine works well for other things but for some updates need use of USB stick and those are not working. When you have installation direct to Win7 professional 32 bit, they are working at least for me
you can pass usb stick to a vm easily.

Make sure you set date to 2023 and lock it because the software expired a month ago and it won't work.
 
screenshot of the fatal error?
Tried it again yesterday and these are the only snapshots I could get... then the laptop wouldnt run again for some reason. I dropped the original 360gb HDD back in and am cloning it back to the SSD again. I will leave it on Win7 Pro for now and try again later.
The BIOS shows Intel Virtualisation is enabled as is VT-d so it should be ok... I think.

I have now done a full clean install of Windows 10 and running the download all over again. I have also ordered some new RAM to bring it up to 8g. There seems to be mixed info on what VMWare 17 player needs... so I have gone for 8gb as that is the max my laptop will run. I am not sure why the system says the processor isnt compatible as it is a 4 core i7 which should be OK.. not optimal but should work accoding to the info I have seen. Will find out more when I install VM Ware I guess.
 
Well, looks like my Laptop has a major issue.. twice now it has shut down showing a nice blue screen with a Machine Check Exemption which apparently means a major hardware error... it was dirt cheap so it is to be expected I guess. Hmmm suggestions now being taken for a suitable Laptop to run SDD in VM Ware :)

A thought... I have an Intel Macbook Air.. will the VM run in fusion on the Macbook?

I bit the bullet and downloaded Fusion 13 for personal use and loaded it up along with the required VM onto my 2013 Macbook Air and without tweaking it at all it fired straight up.. very impressive. now I just need to hook up to my RRSport and see what I can do to resolve my 3 amigos :)
Well done @PRO your work is much appreciated.
Picture for proof it works on a Macbook Air :)

Ah that would be an easy fix with older version of vmware player like 15 or 16 because the laptop is too old.

Oh yeah actually forgot that this can run on macs as well! :) just make sure you pass through the usb into it, and will be 100% functional.

Yep, I went through the set up and did that first. It is a bit slow for Windows to load but once it is running the SDD seems to be fine. I will see how it goes once I connect to my RRS . I need to figure out how to run CCF editor as well.. some more playing to do there :)
the Macbook Air works out to be a good option as it has plenty of battery time, is light and has a really nice screen, not to mention I already had it.

easier with seed calculator if you can get it I paid quite a bit for it so not giving it for free.
 
I have a CTEK MXS10 which has a "Supply" mode. Should be fine for what I need to do. I am pretty sure last time I had it connected I was on 12.5 with no drama. I will charge and maintain the battery for a few days before I get a chance to hook up. I have an MY20 Discovery Sport 240HSE now as well... That is my normal vehicle now. Hopefully with SDD I can code the Tow package I will be fitting soon... apparently I can also do it with my GAP tool too...

Cant have enough tools when you have 2 JLR vehicles... I seem to have picked the good ones, 3.0 litre V6 RRS and 240hp Ingenium Discovery Sport lol

I have the same, also want to fix the towbar as the config says it's not fitted, even though the paperwork says it was fitted from factory

Suggest you ask this question on a new thread in the range rover section. It will help if you can translate into English
