I downloaded Disk 1 to my hard drive and tried to setup but got a message that the program is not compatible with my system. I am on a Toshiba notebook PC running windows 7 home premium 64. Should it work? Is it just for 32 bit?

 

The older JTIS was designed for the 16-bit OS, but if you look in the FAQ thread for the xk8-xkr subforum, you'll see a link to a thread on how to get the JTIS to work on Windows 7. G'luck!

 

mcduval, you need to just run the setup program, it'll start the cd creation process...IIRC, it has been a couple years since I did this.

 

Update
mediafire website is requiring download fee on large files such as the JTIS
so do not use the New JTIS21 Jaguar Shop Repair manual download that is on the mediafire website:
http://www.mediafire.com/?elvzoedg4qst3
Instead use the 3 JTIS archive download files on my dropbox account:

JTIS 21 CD.part1.exe (190.74 MB)
https://www.dropbox.com/s/fvdg6rsl63...20CD.part1.exe

JTIS 21 CD.part2.rar (190.74 MB)
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bwx4uch8m9...20CD.part2.rar

JTIS 21 CD.part3.rar (58.9 MB)
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xk49mq38ch...20CD.part3.rar

Next step after archive file downloads is to where to place the JTIS files after they are extracted (CD or on PC hard drive).

This PDF describes both the CD and Hard drive processes:

Next step depends on whether your PC has a 32 bit or 64 bit Operating System.

Hi
I just want to remind forum members that the JTIS21 Jaguar Shop Repair Manual is a free download here on the forum.

Here are 2 JPEG files:
First One is a scanned image of the JTIS21 CD:

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/a...1-cd-image-jpg

The other one is screen capture showing the 2004.25 X-Type selected and has the table of contents displayed. The fuel tank and lines is selected.



Here is the JTIS21 Download file and download information thread, go to post #1:

New JTIS21 CD download with download instructions

Review all the posts in the JTIS21 thread - they give some insight on install and use issues.

has anybody gotten this to work with vista 64 bit?

 

I cannot get these to work on my XP system. I've downloaded these twice now since the first time I got a message the first download had a corrupted file. So used this latest MediaFire site and all downloaded properly and extracted clean. And the properties on my JTIS21 folder are identical to those in the instructions.

However, when I run setup.exe I get the message:

c:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.

I've chosen both close and ignore and it just dies. Thoughts?

 

wow! I bought it off ebay twice! A neighbor lost it before I ever loaded the first. To make it function I had to do the primary install then go into a file and do a secondary install.

 

Hi DougBoost
This morning I did a Internet search for "The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications" error message.

I found this microsoft support document about your (windows xp) error message.
Here is the weblink to the document:

Error message when you install or start an MS-DOS or 16-bit Windows-based program (*http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324767* I added an * for and after* the web address)

Document Title is "Error message when you install or start an MS-DOS or 16-bit Windows-based program"

SYMPTOMS

"If you try to start or install an MS-DOS-based or a 16-bit Windows-based program on your Windows XP-based computer, you may receive an error message that is similar -

Although you may be prompted to quit the program or ignore the error message, either selection makes the program quit.

CAUSE

This issue may occur if one or more of the following files are missing or damaged: Config.nt Autoexec.nt Command.com

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, use one of the following methods

------

Here are 2 methods described in the article.

The first method is too lengthy to list all the steps here in this post (Use the weblink I gave above to view it).

The second method describes windows repair procedure.

I did a test run of the procedure and found that it replaces the Autoexec.nt file located in the C:\Windows\System32 folder with the Autoexec.nt file in the C:\windows\repair folder.

I used my wife windows xp PC to do test and I open both Autoexec.nt files with notepad to compare them. The contents were identical, probably because her PC is not having this issue.

Here is the steps described in Method 2:

1. Click Start, click Run, type C:\windows\repair, and then click OK.
2. Right-click the Autoexec.nt file, and then click Copy.
3. Click Start, click Run, type %windir%\system32, and then click OK.
4. In the System32 folder, press Ctrl + V to paste the Autoexec.nt file in this folder.

PS - my opinion - you should make a backup copy of the Autoexec.nt in the C:\windows\system32 folder before you do step 4 (you can rename it to Autoexechold).

Hope this helps

Thanks so much! Very informative.

 

Jim,

Sure enough, this fixed it and I now have the JTIS up and running. Thanks for going above and beyond on this one!!!

Doug

 

I just completed the download to a disc, ran the setup.exe and it works fine. The download took about 5 hours but that is because of our miserable speed here in Kuwait. This is now running on on a machine with Vista, doesn't seem to be a problem.

 

That's good, I thought you would have all the whiz bang high tech connections in Kuwait!

 

Thank you!!!!!

 

The JTIS is available at cannell.co.uk. Look under Manuals for Jaguar.

 

Hi Andrew
I located the JTIS on the cannel.co.uk website that you pointed out in your post.
Took about 25 minutes to download this very large JCD-1.zip file on Rick's Cars -cannell.co.uk:

http://www.cannell.co.uk/Jaguar_Work...uals/JCD-1.zip

File size is 470420 kb (approx. 459 megs)

I downloaded it, but have not tried to install yet.

Anyone know where to download or know how to get JTIS

Either read this thread or this one https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/g...rchives-65926/

 

I have been trying to revise/update all the possible variations of the instructions for the JTIS (downloads, extraction, Operating systems, installation, how to use the software, etc).

Look at post# 144.
