At least !!!!!!
It's one year that I try to install SDD without success. Tried various versions v130, v138, v142, v142, v145 with Mongoose (clone), Mongoose Pro (clone) and VCX Nano but never able to make them work. Generally the error was during login even with various patche applid.
Now I ha ve discovered my fault and I hope it' usefull .
The problem is that, being italian, I have XP in italian. This means that the default directory where all programs are installed is \Programmi and not Program Files as is in english XP version.
This means that JDS SDD installed by default in C:\Programmi and not in C:\Program Files. Later, when SDD tries login it looks in C:\Program Files but doesn't find the code that is located in C:\Programmi and stops.
Now I have installed and english version of XP and v130 works correctly.
I will try next days with more recent SDD version.
Hope this helps non english guys.

A bit of info that I found necessary if you are running version 130 under a VirtualBox VM

I was trying to set the username/password (as supplied in the rar's) and it kept failing - the date/time was set to 01/08/2014 ok so that should have matched.

The problem was that the VM sub-system was resetting the time/date back to that of the host - even with the network disabled, the solution was found via a web search

Enter the following command from the command line, this is for Linux - for a Windows host you are supposed to replace vboxmanage with VBoxManage, (odd as Windows is not case sensitive)

Replace the blue text (no <>) with your VM name.

vboxmanage setextradata <enter the name (only - no path) of the VM> "VBoxInternal/Devices/VMMDev/0/Config/GetHostTimeDisabled" "1"

ie. vboxmanage setextradata WinXP32_SP3_SDD "VBoxInternal/Devices/VMMDev/0/Config/GetHostTimeDisabled" "1"

Worked a treat, apologies if this info has been posted earlier.

I too am using Virtual Box to host my various makes of software, and would add a point of clarification to the post above: if you use any vboxmanage command and your virtual machine has any spaces in its name then you must enclose the full name in inverted commas e.g. if your VM name is My Jag VM, then you must use the instruction thus:
vboxmanage setextradata 'My Jag VM' “VBoxInternal/Devices/VMMDev/0/Config/GetHostTimeDisabled” “1”

Having decoupled the host and guest machine clocks, I wrote a small VB.NET program to do the clock management and run the application. Happy to share the source code here if there's any interest...

Good advice Zulu 10

I come from the Unix/Linux world where spaces in and command line text such as file names is a crime and so would always recommend against it as they can confuse the shell - even in Windoze sometimes which is supposed to be able to handle them implicitly.

The best way is use some form of CamelCase, or to replace spaces with underscores, dashes, or periods instead.

Just my personal idiosyncracy.....

After many many attempts (read my previous post about english version of XP Pro, and Italian version of XP, this last not working) I want to share my experience.
SDD v130 downloaded from Mediafire (thanks to martyn812) works completely if connected to my 2006 X-Type. Every function seems to be ok. I installed on a Celeron Acer and speed is satisfactory. Of course no internet connection at all. Only XP Pro SP3 clean install with just (needed) Adobe Reader 7.0 and Winzip, this makes the speed quite satisfactory even if Celeron with 1 Gb ram is poor in performance. I used Ghost 9 or 15 to completely reinstall XP before any new attempt to install SDD in different versions in order to be sure that XP is clean and not dirty of previous SDD versions. Clock date before SDD installation was 1 aug 2012 and I correct manually before any SDD start. Just entered user and password as mentioned in martyn812 download and I had no problems of authentication since now. Instead of n.5 file (mongoose driver) I installed my Mongoose Pro driver received from the vendor of the clone. There is a question I have for those that know SDD be. On the left of the "Sessions" screen there is a small Key image, if I click it says " Click to activate coded access". If I click appears a windows with 3 fields: VIN with my VIN number, Seed (3GHHc78APG) and a password to be entered. What's the meaning, which password do I have to use, the one used for login ? Thanks for any suggestion.
In addition I had a lot on unsuccess trying on more recent SDD version, I will post on "Cheap Mongoose" thread.

 

[wrinkly]

The password for the key image is L405X152 but it does not do anything, I think it is something to do with being online to topix

Actually I think you'll find that the password you have quoted is a generic user access code for a particular version of SDD (v131 from memory).

What essepi is asking about is something different:

The password for coded access is machine (PC) and VIN specific hence the fact that it quotes a seed - this is the first half of challenge and response authentication.

The code is, I believe, only available from JLR - unless someone has managed to crack it and has published a keygen on line.

An update for the VirtualBox date process - if you are using windoze as the host you will probably need to add the full path to vboxmanage (unless you have added it to your path environment variable) - bold in the example below is for my system, change yours to suit.

1. Open cmd line box
2. Change to the directory containing the VM (i.e. C:\Users\Graham\VirtualBoxVMs>)
3. Enter your version of the command below - I did this without the VM running, not sure if that is necessary.

C:\Users\Graham\VirtualBoxVMs>"C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\vboxmanage" setextradata W7_WXP32_SP3_SDD "VBoxInternal/Devices/VMMDev/0/Config/GetHostTimeDisabled" "1"

Note: The path to vboxmanage has a space in it - which needs the whole path to be enclosed in quotes as described above (not good M$ !)

Many thanks to martyn812 for the v130 files and step by step guide, it was very reassuring! My only deviation was the need to install the mongoose pro drivers from the DVD, otherwise my XP Pro SP3 machine loaded everything perfectly, read the VIN and all the data. I have a constant MIL and flashing coil light which is reported as P0406 EGR Sensor and P0409, P0404 - all related to EGR, despite giving it a clean every year, anyway that's not for this thread! I love the way the pinpoint program takes you step by step to identify the issue, it looks like I now have a lot to learn about the software, with 100s of pages to read through.

Can someone tell where to buy a mongoose pro clone that works with version 1.30?

Does this work with V130?

 

[Graham1402]

Other FM have used it successfully with v130. The v134 discs that are supplied by some sellers contain a v. nasty virus.

This is a useful thread about Mongoose installation, by Opa, thanks Opa,

For v130 user name is JLR9A8172 password is L538X760 must not have internet connection and set the date to 08/08/12

Thanks Wrinkly, date was set to 01/08/12, worked first time once i changed it 8/8/12.

You need to create a batch file that runs every time the laptop is booted to keep the date the same.
