lol... I am fluent in russian, as slick said earlier... I also understand a bit of spanish as I have studied full-time spanish for 8 weeks non-stop and worked in Latin america for a couple of years and can pick up a word or two in turkish...

The cable is the one, it will connect you via OBD II to the car's electronics, including the iBus, but the software that came with it is a bitch to install... Once installed correctly, you will be able to get to various functions of the car...

I think the NCS does not call for the VM environment, just the correct port settings... check the bmwcoders.com and bmwcoding.com before venture into the TRW file - make sure you SAVE the original file and BACKUP the original file in several places... there are other pieces of software that you might want to get for the NCS programming...

you might want to consider deleting corner lights, activating the fogs with the highbeams, if you have Nav, then synching the car clock with the GPS clock, deleting the gong for the key in ignition and seat belt... those are the things that i managed to do on mine.

things that i could NOT do were the windows rolling nonstop while doors are ajar, windows and sunroof closing with a key press, and the angels eyes operate as DRL

Yea I have all the software possible already. Just weeding through it all. Stupid ass VMware won't set up on my laptop. Something to do with my processor not supporting it. So that is my hang up right now. Can you believe it, I still didn't finish setting it all up. I've had the cables software, and laptop forever now. Shit.

you may have to go in to your BIOS and enable Virtualization support or VT, then try loading VMware.
