Question: I bought VCM II SP239-B and downloaded Ford IDS / Mazda IDS & Ford Mazda patch. It will not allow me to install both together, nor will the patch work on either, it just shows a notice stating that the IDS can’t be found. how do I get these IDS software into VMware so I can run both on one PC. I already have VMware v6.0.2 installed with JLR SDD on it.
