Thank you
All good now,

I burnt it again, the same speed but it works , phew....!

Now how do i do my custom screen, can't wait .... ! Also what other benefit from this new software?

Thank you

And now for something completely different ...

I registered just yesterday and wanted to quickly contribute the splash I flashed earlier in the week. We all have intimate relationships with our wheels so I think most of you will get it ...

ps: This image is optimized to smaller than the original.

pps: Off topic, I know, but while I'm thinking of it, is anyone who knows, and not just guessing, able to tell me what method I should follow for changing the VIN stored in my MKIV? This was an upgrade for an '01 7-series and I have access to the virtual GT1. I could definitely resolve this myself but if someone is able to point me in the right direction that would, of course, be my preference.

Thanks to all who make this an informative site through meaningful contribution!

You could do it with Jochen's Navcoder also.

Correct, just make sure that the saved image is mode2/form1.

You can totally do this. And you should try because, since you have the MK4, you can't screw it up. All of the information and tools you need to do it are included within these pages.

If, even after this encouragement, you are still too daunted to try, I'd recommend that you 1, post your logo and state whether you've ensured that it is of the proper format and size, 2, state whether or not you can burn CDs and/or DVDs and that you prefer an image file that you will download as opposed to receiving a CD-DVD in the mail, and 3, what it is worth to you.

If you provide enough information and make it worthwhile I'm confident that you'll find someone to do this for you. Lastly, and if you do this, I'd recommend stipulating some method for identifying who you will accept the completed project from, e.g. first person to call dibs, so as to prevent multiple people from simultaneously trying to help you.

Best of luck.
