Re: W463 Service CD

I have no experience with the seller or his manual. The only manual I can think of that he is describing, if indeed it is a genuine MB manual, is the "Introduction to service" published by MB in 1990. That is very useful for a 463 owner.

If anyone is interested in the ebay one, ask him for a scan of the cover

Re: W463 Service CD

I'm at this moment printing the last 20 pages(341 in total)) or so of that manual. You can get it from manualmadness.com there is a link on forum if you search. I downloaded it last night.

Re: W463 Service CD

How did you do it on the manualmadness link. Did you have to download other stuff too?

No, just read all the page very carefully

It looks like you have to down load all sorts of programs but if you look closely you can just download the manual

Clever advertising or just downright tricky

If you can't suss it, give be a call after 9pm tomorrow and i will talk you through it

Re: W463 Service CD

Hi Marko - thanks for the link.

I've downloaded it and, in order to unzip the files, its asking for a password!

Help!

Re: W463 Service CD

did you put the password in? It wont do anything until the password is typed in.

I just downloaded it again to check, and it is fine.

Your download may have corrupted. So try downloading again.

I've tried several times, it doesn't ask me for a password, just says that it cannot be expanded. Must be a Mac thing!!!

Got there smiley Used another app, The unarchiver for Mac. I can't believe Apple dropped the archive utility in OSx. Madness.

 

Thanks.

Re: W463 Service CD

Strange. Maybe different versions or different OS? Glad you got there in the end.
