Reduced process for a fresh DiagBox v8.01 installation:
Installing DiagBox 8.01
1- Install DiagBox 7.01, perform the Activation, this will create the “APPDIAG.SYS”, “CFG.BIN” and “VERSION.INI” files in "C:\AWRoot\bin\fi\" needed for V8.01 installation. Stop the installation (Task Manager, End Task) and reboot the computer.
2- Rename "C:\AWRoot" to "C:\AWRoot7" and uninstall DiagBox v7.01, this will NOT remove “C:\AWRoot7”. Install Microsoft .NET 3.5 SP1, VC++ 2008 and Java and restart the computer.
3- Install 8.01, it will create a new "C:\APP" and "C:\AWRoot" but when requesting User Activation, close it and restart the computer.
4- Run "AWRoot_v7_files_for_v8.exe" (attached to the first post) and restart DiagBox application, it will continue the DiagBox 8.01 installation.
5- When finished, close DiagBox and restart it to ensure it is working fine and no updates are needed, it will report the Version 7.65.
Installing Updates:
1- Download and install "DiagBox_updt_802.ISO" update.
2- Other updates are as explained previously.
Done...
P.S. The order of installing things is important, I had "Data Access Problem" which was sorted by reinstalling Java 7.67 and VC++ 2008 9.0.21022.8, then reinstalling DiagBox 8.01.. a blank "C:\VERSION.TXT" was also added.
