The challenge of communicating from the virtual environment through the real computer's hardware ports can make it difficult but can be done.
VMWare is free to use and it has been done from what I read but could be a fairly involved process because of the serial port issue, especially when using a USB to serial adapter.
Another solution would be to get a USB to serial port adapter and specify the proper COM port number during the install of Tis2000.Īnother possible solution would be to use a virtual environment on a host computer. Laptops that have actual serial ports built in are probably so old that they are too slow or have age and reliability issues. In my setup, I used an old IBM T40 laptop, which is fairly decent processor wise, installed a fresh copy of Windows XP SP3 and used a docking station with it that has a serial port. Best and easiest scenario is to use an older laptop computer that has a serial port running windows XP. This can be a problem if you only have newer computers. The Tech2 communicates with the computer using a serial port on the computer running Windows XP SP3. It will also allow you to reprogram a module that you are replacing.
For example, I was able to update all of the modules and PCM in my 2006 9-7x even though it had only been a year or two since production and issue of this software. It will have PCM and module updates included. It was discontinued in 2008 by GM which means that it works only for vehicles up to model year 2007. That's because only dealers have those or a clone of one wasn't included.įirst of all, this is old software. If you install it and try to use it, it says that it can't find the USB security dongle or something like that. If you bought one of the Tech2 clones, it probably came with a CD with the Tis2000 software. Things like updating PCM's and modules and anything security related are locked out. So you have a Tech2 but a lot of the things you would like to do is locked out because you don't have access to the computer software to allow you to do it. And a lot doesn't apply since it's geared towards Saab (even the 9-7x doesn't apply, it's under GM). There should be 2 other files “Id.dll and SCAControlUI.exe”, Copy that to C: Program Files cosids bin and overwrite the 2 files.A lot of info I found over at SaabCentral but it is just a giant thread to read through although a lot of the info is on the first page. Your are suppose to copy the two files from dongle folder to C: Windows System32. When I updated mine, only security access level 1 is required. I don’t know why your Tech2 require security access level 2. After every module update, I would add it back right after the update complete before I went ahead and update another module. Q: Anyone can help with issues when add BCM or ICM3 and help confirm things with crack for GM Tech II tis2000? A: I updated and add back a lot of modules. Another and better solution is to download/install Saab GlobalTis from this site and then ask for activation in the right thread, that will for sure solve the dongle problems. A: You should have a real LPT-port on the computer.
Q: I keep getting registry access error messages when I try to install the DDINST32.EXE file.
Q: What is number of your COM port? Which you are using to connect Tech 2? A: I have 2 available com ports in my pc (1 native and 1 usb to serial), both work without any issue. Program Files cosids bin 4) Copy files from folder Dongle to c: Windows System32 5) Enjoy!ὤ In the end, i collect some typical questions and answers. (IF your PC DID NOT has LPT port you will took 1 “Error”!ĭO NOT bother!) 3) Replace original Id.dll and SCAControlUI.exe with patched in.
2) Run Drivers DDINST32.EXE and press “Express” to install Activator Dongle drivers. I used the Tech 2 to add the components that had elevated security and it worked! The setup instruction also shared by the donator. Black Facebook Icon Black Twitter Icon Black Pinterest. When I updated the security access on the Tech 2 the TIS2000 still showed type 1. Usually, we users need buy dongle key for programming on saab cars It is said that it is for ANY TIS2000 the dongle crack and NO NEED to buy any dongle key! This is the TIS2000 download link: TIS2000 Dongle Crack! The file that contained the software security dongle did work for me. I happened to get the scanner software TIS2000 dongle crack version from mh****forum. Here, i wanna share something interesting with you all.
