I am from CT and would love to take a trip to Boston
I got your PM but I can't respond yet as i'm still under 45 posts. I'll start a list and let you guys know once I get everything together and ready. Power supply should hopefully be here early next week so that should give me enough time to finish building the PC with all the various VM's on it and figure out how to use ICOM with NCSExpert & WinKFP.

Once that's done i'll get to work on making the ICOM work with NCSExpert, DIS, etc.

What's C&C?

C&C is Cars and Coffee. It’s held at the Larz Anderson Museum on Saturday mornings. This Saturday a group is meeting early in Brighton to all go together. If you’re interested we can definitely meet up.

I have read through 35 pages of this thread and i cant stand reading anymore!! haha.

Can anyone tell me what to do?

I have a UK SPEC 2005 E60, has anyone done a youtube clip of the step by step processes??

Many thanks

He didn't have his laptop configured right. User error was the case on that 06. He was able to flash it once he changed settings on his laptop the way it was supposed to be setup
