Hi Colin
I get 3 errrors - continued with an 'ignore' on each and it seems to continue to install OK and VE1.31 then opens OK and has the new features showing but what we don't know is which functions may be compromised.

And I thought it might just be me
I got the first CRC error on a GIF file which didn't bother me much but the other two were on EXE files which I decided wasn't to be trusted. I tried three different browsers and uninstalled 1.3 before trying again all to no effect.
So near and yet so far

It looks like corruptions have occurred in 3 files during the building of the V1.31 installation exe.
It's an easy fix to re build and upload again.
As usual my chaps left it right to the wire on Friday, leaving no time for us to do a test download and install to find this ourselves, and sods law dictates that just when you trust things to work as they should something that should not be a problem and has never happened before goes wrong.
However, there is no cause for concern, as the GIF is simply for the help file for the P38 BECM, so does not affect Disco 3 stuff at all, the PDC1.exe is a Vehicle server software module for the Early 2002 L322 which has not been changed for many years, and the FEM1.exe is the vehicle server software module for the Touch screen on the D3 but it has also not been changed since 1.29 so this would not be required to be replaced / updated on the Vehicle server anyway.
So unless you really need to see the picture of the pin outs on a connector on a P38 BeCM, there is nothing to worry about at all.
Just downloaded the upgrade to VE 1.31 - all downloaded and decompressed without any errors, true to form Colin & his boffins fix the problem ASAP.

In the end it was a simple USB flash drive we were using to try and speed things up that was adding corruptions to the file.
In any event we have been notified of a few bugs in V1.31 which we have fixed and have now released V1.31A and i have amended the download link in the BBS forum accordingly.
TBH i never really expected V1.13 to be bug free, and even V1.13A may need some tweaking before it is perfect.
But given the immense amount of capability that this software upgrade adds and how unique and advanced all the capabilities we alone strive to freely develop and provide for our systems owners, and are renowned for, it's pretty understandable.
BBS has now closed for business and on behalf of myself and all BBS staff i wish you all a Merry Christmas and happy new year and we all raise a glass to you.

Problems dowloading Flash file loader v 1.40
Any one got problems down loading the new version of flash file loader v 1.4 on the BBS forum site
I can download it to my laptop running xp but will not open or initialize
vehicle explorer version 1.30a downloaded and opened ok
any help appreciated
Just tried downloading on an other pc and downloads but will not open. So looks like a problem with the file ?Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where,s the f**king ceiling!!
I downloaded the file and it installed ok on my CF18, it does take a while to install it, also you should be on version 1.31a as well now..
