Hi everybody.

Some time ago i bought from Lik-Sang a MBV3 cable but i received it without any software, just a simple cable withouth any information or manufacturer name, nothing.

Since i had other priorities at the time i did not try to contact them to get the software and now that i tried i could not send any email throught their site (the link does not work!).

Do anybody have a link on the original manufacturer of this cable or know how to get the software for it?

Lik-Sang has never sold the MBV3 cable. They manufactured and sold the MBV2 cable however...

Well Simon,

i may be wrong because it was some time ago but i was sure i had bought that gadget from Lik Sang. Anyway, i hope somebody give some help otherwise it will stay useless inside a drawer.

Regards.

Google might help:

It appears that the cable supports MBV2 protocol. If you have a working Win98 system, try the MBV2 software.

Wasn't the MBV3 really just a MBV2 that people renamed so that people think it's better than Geoff's MBV2? Geoff says so on his FAQ.

Wasnt the MBV3 just a ripoff of Ajo's intelligent multiboot cable?

It was a rip off of something else, plus it had less features.
