Title: ALLDATA
Post by: chevyguy5894 on September 16, 2007, 07:51:14 pm

I got some ALLDATA cd roms and I installed the program and it says that I need a hardware key to make it work does anyone know anything about this program?

I found this with Goggle

Is this a program you purchased ?  If so the key should be on the cd cover or in the information that came with the program.

Thanks, ToolMaster! I work part time for AutoZone and have been hearing all kinds of stuff about the issues AllData is having with piracy. It is expensive software, but is designed for repair facilities and such.

Its something we found in a car. It had the installation disk and then about 50 cds on newer model cars. I was trying to access it to see if it had a wiring diagram for a 03 04 chevy truck. When I try to access the program is says it needs a key that i guess that has to be added on to the computer.

Without the key all you got is some free Frisbee's  :)
Unless you can find that key its useless.  (As far as I know !! )

I have a few Alldata keys. The newer keys are USB like a thumb drive. I use Alldata via online subscription now. You can hack through the subscription key. Find yourself a good hacker and buy him a case of Nerds and I'm sure he'll get ya in. My coworker hacked it on his PC and he's not too computer savy...
