else too...? But PKW would include  ALL passenger cars, but not trucks or 
busses. minivans...don't know.

And we always thought our German cousins were SO organized!  (Maybe that is 
just trains)

Tom,

Do you have these instructions already:

http://www.w124performance.com/docs/mb/other/EPC_Read_Me!.txt

I'd stick with the August-2002 version on CD-ROM, btw. If you have
followed the instructions at the link above, to the letter, please
send me an email off-line with the exact error/failure and when it
occurs (during install, after install, etc). WIth XP Pro, you should
be able to get it working, with no extra hoop-jumping such as
VirtualCD, etc.

:)
