Hi, any thoughts to get a E60 brochure in pdf from 2003/2004 (very first models)?
Thanks

I have downloaded and installed this on Windows 7 and it seems to work. But in which section can I find the servicing guide?

Are you able to set out the process for intallation, the instructions are quite vaigue? I installed the "sysadmin " as per the instructions, but it failed to locate the files for the next step. Any help you could give to get this up and running would be appreciated. My computer runs XP.
Thanks

ok, i burned the disc with the torrent.
when i run the disc, i click on setup, then a menu pops up asking for language, but then it does nothing else.
if i go into the language subfolders and click on install, i get an error to check something about 32 bit vs 64 bit.

any ideas?

Search the downloaded files for the phrase "setup" and run each one.
