This procedure and the software provided are intended for personal, educational and experimental use to upgrade from DiagBox version 7.xx to 8.xx only. I hold no responsibility for any illegal or improper usage. Carry out this procedure at your own risk.
If you don't have DiagBox 7.xx already installed, install DiagBox 7.01, perform internet update to 7.02 and use v7.xx-7.57 upgrade or any version that has "C:\AWRoot\dtwr\cfg\config.sys". Once you have an operational 7.xx start from here:
1- Stop all DiagBox services and rename "C:\APP" to "C:\APP7" and "C:\AWRoot" to "C:\AWRoot7" and restart your computer.
2- Install 8.01, it will create a new "C:\APP" and "C:\AWRoot" but it will stop at requesting User Name and Password, close it.
3- Stop all DiagBox services again and rename "C:\AWRoot" to "C:\AWRoot8" and "C:\AWRoot7" to "C:\AWRoot", restart computer.
4- Start DiagBox application, it will continue the DiagBox 8.01 installation.
5- When finished, close DiagBox and restart it to ensure it is working and no updates are needed, it will report Version 7.57 or the version you used.
6- Stop all DiagBox services and rename "C:\AWRoot" to "C:\AWRoot7" and "C:\AWRoot8" to "C:\AWRoot".
7- Ensure (through Control Panel Add Remove) you have VC++ 2008 (preferably Microsoft.VC80.CRT" version="8.0.50727.762) is installed.
8- Navigate to all the files listed below in "C:\AWRoot\..." and rename them to original_name.8 for example "C:\AWRoot\bin\fi\version.txt" to "C:\AWRoot\bin\fi\version.txt.8"
9- Copy all the listed files from "C:\AWRoot7\..." to the appropriate location in "C:\AWRoot\...", you will now have 2 copies of each file, one with .8 extension and one without..
10- Restart your computer and download and install the reconfigured "DiagBox_updt_802.ISO" update.
11- Continue installing Maitresox update from 7.66-7.76 --> 7.76-7.82 --> 7.82-7.83 etc..
You are done.. You now have DiagBox v8.xx running under v7.xx profile (ignore the reported version) and (in theory) you could switch back to your original installation by stopping all DiagBox services and renaming your current "C:\APP" and "C:\AWRoot" to 8 and "C:\APP7" and "C:\AWRoot7" to "C:\APP" and "C:\AWRoot". Going back to 8 is the reversal.
The list of files and the Update 8.02 download link with password are in the attached file "DBox_801_upgrade.txt".
The file "DBox_8-20.txt" contains a link to the original (NOT reconfigured) "inter8_02.rar" 8.20 update, it has components for "AWRoot" only. DO NOT TRY IT if you don't know what you are doing, it will render your system NOT WORKING for sure.
Have a nice time,
Simple.
Please find a link to DiagBox 8.01 ISO in the attached file "DiagBox_8.01_ISO.txt".
