How do you know you are close? 
It tried DosBox about a year ago, couldn't even get it to run with an actual COM cable.

You need to set your hexcom cable to `non intelligent boot` or something in the settings of VCDS.Hi Guys,
I am really tired of trying to get my prehistoric laptop to work with VDS-Pro and a my HexCom cable, (it used to work, that it the way I programmed 3 cars before, but now I am pretty sure the HexCom programming has been altered to not allow it), so I have a question for all of you.
Is there any other modern software program that will work to do CCM mods that doesn't cost an arm and a leg and will work with a generic cable, (usb prefereably)?
That worked! Thanks!You need to set your hexcom cable to `non intelligent boot` or something in the settings of VCDS.
Legend! For anyone looking to do these mods and doesnt have a cable. I bought one of these last week (took 6 days to get here) and works with VDSPro.Same as my 2004 R32 in Australia. I had 10 and changed to 2.
This will allow up/down windows with remote.
My car already had the interior monitoring (same as yours) and already has the code from the factory for the 20 second delay alarm if the door opened with key only.
It is the Chzech one. The software was free, just had to buy the correct k cable on eBay. Then you get some registration code from the software on their website and enter it in to unlock it, but this was several years ago, so haven't bothered to look at it recently.If it's the czeck one it's not free, or at least it didn't used to be, and this process varies quite a bit by model, year, country, and comfort module version so it's not a one thing fits all sort of deal... Plus you would still need to connect a cable to the car to apply the mod.
To clarify a few points you have raised for any future modders, if I may.Vehicle:
2003 Jetta Wagon, GLS TDI 5-Speed, USA
1C0 959 799 C 8A Komfortge rßt HLO 0003 (as stated in VDS-Pro)
What was listed/suggested (in very few posts) for this CCM and year/model vehicle:
(supposedly subtract 8 from original values for this mod for some 1C0 CCM units)
Vortex's post#1 specified 2003 Jetta Wagon TDI values below:
(it is also listed here but somewhere buried way down deep in this thread)
address old new
04361 202 194
04362 202 194
04363 202 194 (possibly optional)
What I chose to try first for my 2003 Jetta Wagon:
address old new
04361 202 194
04362 202 194
04363 202 202 (I left it unchanged)
I have no clue what those three addresses are actually for or why it works as expected (and desired) without changing the value of the third address.
I just looked up the website again. The "lite" version, which if I recall is all you need, is free. http://www.motordiag.cz/mkm.It is the Chzech one.
