I'm only asking because windows 32bit systems can only utilize 3.5GB ram. So even if you have 8GB ram sticks installed the system will only use 3.5GB of it. To use all of the ram you need windows 64bit installed. You guessed right! I use 2 laptops. I use an old laptop with Win7 32bit for most of my coding, but decided to use my faster laptop running 64bit Win7 for the ISTA VMs. Exactly for the reason you state: ISTA VMs need lots of memory and 32bit is capped at around 3.5GB which is not nearly enough. In fact, even with 4GB available on my 64bit laptop it was too slow which is why I upgraded to 8GB. Much better now. But it still codes very slow. But at least now, if I every need ISTA/P, I have it. For now, I do pretty much everything on my 32bit machine running BST2.12 with NCSExpert. Thanks again!!! |

But you can speed up the loading up of the vms alot by installing them on a ssd drive (snapshots will restore a lot faster). And because you have alot of ram you can change the VMware workstation memory settings via the main menu to speed it up a little (edit > preferences > memory > additional memory > fit all virtual machine memory into reserved host RAM). Note: do not increase the actual ISTA vm memory settings above 4GB. 4GB is optimum. But you cannot speed up the initial diagnosis/coding part much. ISTA/D/P are always slow when doing the initial vehicle check/scanning of modules. Especially slow when using a K+DCAN cable. If using K+DCAN: In the ICOM vm you can try changing the K+DCAN cable transmit/receive speed in advanced settings to 4096 (see pic below). Important: latency timer should be always set to 1 to avoid communication problems. |

I've updated the mod.
Now supports new ICOM A2 clone. So if you apply this mod the combined ISTA vm will work with ICOM A clone, ICOM A2 clone and ICOM emulator V3.1. |
