This procedure and the software provided are intended for personal, educational and experimental use to install
Lexia3 DiagBox v8 on Windows XP or Win 10. Diyobd2 hold no responsibility for any illegal or improper usage. Carry out this procedure at your own risk.
Notice
- Links for DiagBox 8.01, DiagBox updates and "AWRoot_v7_Conf+Ativation_v8.exe" are in the attachment.
- Starting with an installed (32 bit) Windows XP Pro SP3, ".NET 3.5 SP1" (I had FireFox and 7Zip also installed).
- Download and Install "VC++ 2008 Redistributable Package", a copy is available here "C:\teleassistance\visualC\vcredist_x86.exe" after installing DiagBox.
- DiagBox installs without issues on VMware Workstation and Player, but the below preparation is needed for DiagBox 7.62+ and V8.xx.
Preparation for Installing DiagBox 8.01 on VirtualBox
- Having installed 32 bit Windows + VirtualBox Guest Additions + .NET 3.51 and VC++ 2008 Redistributable Package, you can use the Powershell command "Get-WMIObject win32_BIOS" or the "DMIdecode" tool to obtain BIOS information.
- Start an administrator's CMD and navigate to "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\", and execute the following command (Replacing "Your VM" with your Virtual Machine's name, and System Serial with your hardware's, like "CDN29326BH", any other code may also work):
C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage setextradata "Your VM""VBoxInternal/Devices/pcbios/0/Config/DmiSystemSerial""System Serial"
Installing DiagBox 8.01
1- Install DiagBox 7.01 and run update 7.02 then install update 7.xx-7.57 (or any v7.45+ update that creates "C:\AWRoot\dtwr\cfg\Config.sys")
2- Restart the computer and rename "C:\AWRoot" to "C:\AWRoot7" (you may need to stop some diagBox processes)
3- Run DiagBox 8.01 installation until it requests Activation. Close it and run the tool "AWRoot_v7_Conf+Ativation_v8.exe" it will inject the necessary files and copy the configuration from "C:\AWRoot7".
4- Run DiagBox, it should continue the installation successfully.
Done !, Restart DiagBox 8.01 (as Administrator) to confirm all is well. If you face an issue, run the activation tool again and/or review "version.ini" as below.
Installing Updates
1- Download and install "DiagBox_updt_802.ISO" update.
2- Download and install subsequent updates or Maitresox updates.
Versions
The order of the version lines and which is active in VERSION.INI is important for the running of the system. DiagBox will display 08.01 if set as shown below. But Lexia will NOT work with "version.ini" set to V08.xx active (xx is the version number depending on which update is applied).
[APPLICATION]
version=08.01
version=07.65
If Lexia is started with "version=08.xx" active, "APPDIAG.SYS" will be corrupted and it will need to be restored before DiagBox will work again. To operate Lexia (after starting DiagBox with 8.xx), edit "version.ini" and comment/save "version=08.xx" (by inserting ";" as shown below) BEFORE starting LEXIA.
Setting "version.ini" to 07.xx (by removing or commenting "version=8.xx" permanently) will prompt DiagBox to report V 07.xx, but everything will work fine..
[APPLICATION]
;version=08.08
version=07.72
Updates
- DiagBox v7 and v8 install and run on all x86 including Windows 10 TH1, TH2, RS1 and RS2.
- Entering a System Serial for the Virtual Machine (as described above) resolves the "psaAagent.exe" and the missing tabs issue on VirtualBox.
- If you get "Error 2" after restarting DiagBox, try commenting "version=8.xx" in "version.ini" before restarting DiagBox again.
P.S. DiagBox has been running on Firmware 4.3.4 since 7.66/8.02.
