This is a cross post from another section. I thought it might be better to post it under the Data Loggers section.

I am using i2 Standard version 1.0.3.106. I have multiple events logged at multiple tracks in the United States. I was talking to a friend and we wanted to compare data. My vision was to open my session with the best lap time and us it as the base comparison. Then open his session with his best lap time on the same track. His selected lap would be the comparison lap and would show up as the single colored line graph information while my data would be color coded as usual.
First, can this type of comparison be done with i2 Standard from two different cars?
Second, if it can, how do you save the emailed file (that my friend sent me) so that I can see it and open it in the My Logged Data section?
The file that my friend sent me was attached to his email. I right clicked on the file and saved it to my hard drive. I then went to the file and double clicked on it, in an attempt to open it, and an error message come up that read: The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction CS:C8 e8 IP: c6 7c 00 7c c6 Choose 'close' to terminate the application.
So I did and the file will not open.?.
Can anyone help with these questions?
Thanks

Hi Brinkley,

You can compare any data files in i2 Standard, so can quite easily compare laps from two different sessions with the same cars, or two different cars as you have suggested.

When saving an emailed log file, it is best to save it into the folder C:\Motec\Logged Data, or any other folder location where the rest of your data files are stored. You may want to further arrange this folder by track for example, to allow easier finding of specific data. MoTeC data files do not support the Windows "double-click to open" functionality, so in order to open your friend's data file you will need to open i2 Standard, then open the data file from within the software.
