BMW INPA Software is BMW diagnostics software that connects to all the systems and modules on BMW cars, not just engine like generic scanners, it reads BMW trouble codes and gives live diagnostics and data and GUI pages and test functions. BMW INPA software works with INPA K+DCAN Interface. VXDAS.COM has INPA K+DCAN cable with and without switch for BMW. Here provide INPA windows 7 download link here.
INPA Windows 7 Download
Software version: 5.0.2 (tested ok)
VXDAS team also glad to share the installation guide for INPA software with Win7 32bit. Check details below:
We suggest to start with a fresh Windows 7 32 bit to get the BMW INPA software done, because this can help to collect necessary configuration files of INPA 5.0.2.
To avoid further problems, it’s better to disable Windows auto update during the INPA Windows 7 installation process.
After entering your product key, screen will pop up security message.
Select ‘Ask me later’, this will prevent Windows 7 from automatically installing any updates.
Note:
If your installing from pre-SP1 Windows 7 media, we’d rather highly recommend that you manually install two Microsoft updates:
First one: System Update Readiness Tool (KB947821):
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3132
Second one: Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (KB976932):
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5842
During testing pre-SP1 Windows 7 no longer displayed a mouse pointer, after successfully installing EDIABAS & WinKFP and rebooting the system.
Follow steps 2 through 6 of the installation guide. During the EDIABAS & WinKFP install (step 3), select Windows XP (this is not mentioned in the installation guide.)
For all other selections, accept the default and click Weiter which is German for ‘further’.
The first time you attempt to install EDIABAS & WinKFP (step 3), regsvr32 maybe fail to register two Windows ActiveX controls.
Certainly, this is normal, upon re-installation everything will work properly.
Click on OK and then click on the large red circle with a white X at the bottom of the screen to see the second regsvr32 error.
Then click on OK to acknowledge the second error.
Press any key to exit the EDIABAS OBD setup program. Don’t be concerned about any registry key warnings, this installation of EDIABAS will never be used.
When prompted to reboot, select Nein for ‘No’ and then click on Beenden or ‘End’ to exit the installation program. Go to Control Panel and uninstall the program.
Once you have uninstalled the program, reinstall it. On the second attempt, the ActiveX controls will register properly.
This time, select Ja for ‘Yes’ and reboot.
Even with SP1 installed, on occasion the system will no longer display a mouse pointer after rebooting the system at this point.
If this happens, depress the Windows logo key (on some keyboards it may have an icon of a house instead) to display the Start menu.
Depress the right arrow key once and then depress Enter to initiate a proper shutdown. When powered back on, the system should have a functional mouse pointer.
Continue with steps 4-6 in the installation guide.
At the completion of step 5, the Windows Program Compatibility Assistant may appear. So click on ‘This program installed correctly.’
At this point you could optionally install the latest EDIABAS/INPA update (ES-76) from FAL’s EA-90X distribution.
We don’t recommend doing so as the latest INPA scripts are in German and not necessary for coding.
Now you have the base INPA scripts and configuration files that you’ll need to get the latest version of INPA (5.0.6) up and running.
Then copy the the INPA CFGDAT and SGDAT folders to removable media for safe keeping. They are located in C:EC-APPSINPA.
If you were to install the K+DCAN drivers from Windows Update, set the cable to COM1, etc.
Now the battery and ignition clamps maybe working properly.
INPA 5.0.2 is are not totally compatible with the latest SP Daten files (i.e. 50.2). So let’s move on to installing BMW Standard Tools 2.12.
Links to BMW Standard Tools 2.12 and NCS Expert profiles can be found in this post:

SP Daten 50.2 can be found in this thread:
https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=882353
Blow away your previous installation of Windows and start over with a fresh install. INPA 5.0.2 made changes to the Windows registry etc.
Now that we have the two folders needed to bootstrap INPA 5.0.6, it’s best to reinstall Windows.
If your installing from pre-SP1 Windows 7 media, don’t forget to install the System Update Readiness Tool (KB947821). And also Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (KB976932.)
In addition, because this will hopefully be your final re-installation of Windows, we suggest that you manually install one additional Microsoft update:
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40779
When the K+DCAN cable is initially plugged in, Windows will indicate that the device driver was not successfully installed.
Click on the white box circled above when it appears to change the driver update settings.
Click on ‘Change setting’
Select ‘Always install the best driver software from Windows Update’ then click on Save Changes’
Windows Update will install the latest FTDI drivers needed for the one stop electronics.com K+DCAN cable.
Please notice that the FTDI driver has defaulted to USB Serial Port COM3.
You also need to change this to COM1 and then click on ‘Close’
Click on the Windows Start button to display the Start menu.
In the Start Search box type the following command and depress Enter to launch Device Manager:
Code:
mmc devmgmt.msc
When Device Manager opens, click on the arrow to the left of ‘Ports (COM & LPT)’ to expand the Ports device tree. After that, double-click on ‘USB Serial Port (COM3)’ to open the device properties.
Click on the ‘Port Settings’ tab and then click on the ‘Advanced’ button to display the Advanced Settings for COM3.
Then change the COM Port Number to COM1 and the Latency Timer to 1 msec and click ‘OK’
The USB Serial Port should be set to COM1. Close Device Manager.
Install BMW Standard Tools 2.12.
Accept the defaults and then click ‘Next’
When prompted to select additional tasks, de-select the ‘Execute backup and restore wizard’ selections under Data backup.
You don’t have an existing installation of BMW Standard Tools to backup. Click ‘Next’
Click ‘OK’ to acknowledge that the backup wizard has been deactivated.
When the Hardware Interface Settings screen appears, select ‘USB to serial adapter’ then click ‘Next’

Then click ‘Finish’ to complete the BMW Standard Tools setup and restart your computer.
When the User Account Control dialog box appears, select Yes to allow the Windows Command Processor to make changes to your computer.
Copy the Windows ActiveX control MSFLXGRD.OCX to C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32 and manually register it.
Then copy the Windows ActiveX control RICHTX32.OCX to C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32 and manually register it.
Overwrite the INPA initialization file in the C:EC-APPSINPACFGDAT folder with the INPA.INI from your saved CFGDAT folder.
Code:
C:>copy X:CFGDATINPA.INI C:EC-APPSINPACFGDAT /v /y1 file(s) copied.
Copy the INPA scripts and configuration files from your saved CFGDAT and SGDAT folders.
Code:
C:>copy X:CFGDAT*.ENG C:EC-APPSINPACFGDAT /v14 file(s) copied.
Then C:>copy X:SGDAT*.IPO C:EC-APPSINPASGDAT /v468 file(s) copied.
C:>copy X:SGDAT*.SRC C:EC-APPSINPASGDAT /v11 file(s) copied.
C:>copy X:SGDAT*.TXT C:EC-APPSINPASGDAT /v2 file(s) copied.
Now copy the group files from the SP Daten E89 folder to C:EDIABASECU.
Code:
C:>copy X:E89ECU*.GRP C:EDIABASECU /v80 file(s) copied.
Then import your daten files into WinKFP using this guide (steps 2-8)
Create a C:NCSEXPERDATENE89 folder and then copy the contents of the E89DATEN folder into it.
Code:
C:>mkdir C:NCSEXPERDATENE89C:>
copy X:E89DATEN*.* C:NCSEXPERDATENE89 /v430 file(s) copied.
Then copy the contents of the E89SGDAT folder to C:NCSEXPERSGDAT.
Code:
C:>copy X:E89SGDAT*.* C:NCSEXPERSGDAT /v224 file(s) copied.
Go to the E89DATEN directory and execute the LADEN.BAT script.
Code:
C:>cd X:E89DATENX:E89DATEN>laden.bat
You’ll receive errors at the end of the script due to the missing C:EC-APPSCARSERVER directory, ignore them.
Install the patched 32-bit NCS Expert from this thread:
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=832476
Example:
Code:

Now tools like OBD Fusion and PA Soft might all be part of your arsenal for an e46 but there are times when neither of these will do the job. Good examples are Brake Module replacements, or Steering Angle Sensor calibrations. This is why every e46 owner needs a working copy of dealer level software. At least 10 times a week or more there are new posts about INPA. Even the thread titled NOT SO EASY sees the OP frequently having to remote access the owner PC trying to resolve install issues for this not so difficult version. Well these days of install confusion with INPA and configuration issues are over?
It’s never been easier to install BMW Standard Tools thanks to Stylinmike over at Bimmerfest. A while back he created this single one click install that will detect your Windows version and make the necessary modifications; it will even install the correct USB drivers for your Amazon or eBay K+DCAN cable.
What’s great about having a known working copy of BMW Standard Tools (INPA, NCS Expert, EDIABAS etc.) is that it is a prerequisite to upgrading your system to support Rheingold/ISTA.
Rheingold/ ISTA is the current Dealer Level Diagnostic tool for diagnosing and repairing your e46. So once you install the simplest install version of BMW Standard Tools ever produced you can add Rheingold/ISTA to your new BMW Standard Tools as it uses the same EDIABAS 7.3.0 program for comm purposes – with existing K+DCAN cable. This makes your diagnostic system capable for a wide version of BMW’s including e46 all the way up to Fxx series cars. If you don’t want to add Rheingold/ISTA that’s ok too – you’ll have a working copy of INPA and NCS Expert.
Here’s Mike’s version and info:

SINGLE INSTALLATION FILE. ZERO CONFIG.
The package takes all the guess work out of getting your computer ready for coding and diagnostics. It will be extremely useful for novices as well and basically is one single installation file that installs and sets up EVERYTHING.
What’s installed:
– Inpa 5.0.6 (with English script files & Support for F-series)
– EDIABAS 7.3.0
– NCS Expert (with English menus and buttons, and NCS Dummy Profile pre-installed)
– NCS Dummy 4.0.1
– Tool32 4.0.3
– WinKFP 5.3.1
– Integrated SP-DATEN v53.3
– BMW Coding Tool v2.5.0 (for use as an alternative to NCS Dummy, or to update DATEN files as new ones become available)
– USB Drivers for cable
Why is this beneficial?
– One single installation will install ALL the programs needed for coding & diagnosis, will update the programs to show English menus, will set up NCSExpert with the correct NCSDummy profile, will automatically install USB Drivers, and comes integrated with SP-DATEN 53.3 (YES, Integrated!)
– All the latest versions of the programs in one neat install file
– No hunting or searching for SP-DATENs then struggling to import them
– SMALL file size. The entire package is only 170MB!! No need to download 15GB of DATEN files.
– System Environment PATH variables taken care of by the installer
– USB Driver included and automatically installed (and figured out if you need the 32 bit or 64 bit driver by itself)
The ONLY thing that users may need to do is reconfigure their COM port to be COM1 after the install, but a Readme file pops up after the install with simple instructions.

This is the very best and easiest install of INPA, NCS Expert etc. I have ever seen. I’ve installed Mike’s version on several machines (Win x86 and Win 64) and it works great. In seconds you have a fully configured Windows PC for diagnosing, coding and maintaining your BMW. But for me its real benefit comes from assuring that you have the correct base for installing the Rheingold/ISTA layer. (EDIABAS 7.3.0)
Now for some here they’ll not be interested in ISTA, and they only wanted INPA & NCS Expert so you really only need the one file from Mike:
One-Click Install of BMW Standard Tools Download
However if you do install Mike’s version it has the necessary layer of EDIABAS (internal BMW Comm app) to support Rheingold/ISTA. For those who want to upgrade their INPA to ISTA read on:
What is BMW Rheingold ISTA?
Bmw E46 Coding Software
ISTA is a workshop system that contains BMW AG Data and Information. ISTA stands for Integrated Service Technical Application. Way back when, during the initial development of this tool, BMW used DIS (Diagnostics Information System), and as the programs evolved and due to the nature of the file naming conventions utilized by BMW, the workshop system became known as Rheingold in the enthusiast world. Rheingold in actuality is the folder that contains the main application and data. Rheingold became ISTA-D (D stands for Diagnostics) and BMW’s programming application used the same nomenclature, ISTA except with a P (for programming) or ISTA-P.
I have INPA – why would I want Rheingold/ISTA?
Well for a start it’s a much more modern application (Current Dealer tool for e46) with intuitive GUI screens and tabs and stable. In addition to a wider range and span of vehicles, advanced diagnostics, printed reports, vehicle diagnostic history the best feature in my opinion and most important – it’s fully in ENGLISH. Rheingold/ISTA supports many languages that are maintained in the SQL Server dB – English being the default, not German. So unlike INPA where you often are posed with German phrases and technical terms, Rheingold/ ISTA takes the guesswork out of wondering and the possibility of guessing wrong. Your install of BMW Standard Tools will still operate co-dependently with Rheingold/ISTA and you will still use NCS Expert for coding for e- chassis vehicles. For F-chassis and beyond ISTA-P will be used.
ISTA offers 3 different types of cables for vehicle coms (K+DCAN; ICOM and E-NET) – you can use your current K+DCAN cable that you use for INPA
For a quick link to the software that will install over BMW Standard Tools:

Here’s some snaps of ISTA in use with my e92 and e46 (using same K+DCAN cable)

Again, if you don’t want ISTA but just the absolute simplest version of INPA/NCS Expert to install here it is:

Unfortunately there is no one-click install for the Rheingold/ISTA layer over top but it’s pretty straightforward using the attached instructions and the linked page (BLOG) earlier in this post.
