It is utterly amazing how Snap-On can sell 5 to 7 year old hardware in their scan tools for thousands of dollars and people eat that shit up like it's the latest/greatest/fastest thing ever.
Lol that tool is 6 years old… they don’t even sell it anymore?
Just picked up a used Zeus this week with a cracked screen protector cheap! Ordered a new screen protector! Could not run crucial's hardware tool for some reason or other. This video helps on what to buy. Thanks!!
Awesome vid and step by step
Great video Jay, I'm sure it will help many people 👍
Thanks Keith, hopefully it’ll help it as much as it can. Hope all is well.
Thanks for the video, i just picked up a used zeus and i cannot believe it runs windows 10 with only 2gb of ddr3 1600! That ram is getting upgraded ASAP. Its crazy that these scanners are 7-9k new and the hardware (cpu, ram, display, etc.) dont cost more than $500
I see its a 32bit install of windows, so you cant go higher than 4gb of ram then?
Thanks for making this! Was a grate help
Anytime glad it’s helping some folks. Makes it run much faster.
Nice! Thanks for the shout-out!
Great to see you around!
Absolutely Thomas, always give credit where it’s due my friend.
Great video! Can this upgrade be done to a verus edge?
Hi, just bought a used verus edge after a long long wait. I live in Europe and the tool arrived with Europe car models only. It's the 18.4 version. Is there a way to add the US (domestic) cars to the software? To all you verus users. Thanks.
Can I put thermal paste on the cpu? Or is not serviceable???? ...
What happens if I don't clone the ssd and just reinstall windows from scratch???
U wont have the snap on diagnostic software anymore and youll have to pray your snap on vendor will be able to reinstall it. Likely youll have to send it in, and thats if theyll do it assuming they are ok with the hard drive change
I currently have a Zeus plus, and was wondering how everything is working now that you have put a nice amount of time on it. Have you encountered any weird problems since you have did this upgrade. I’m just trying to do all my homework before I try and do this to my scanner. Also if you can let me know more about the VCI upgrade it would be much appreciated
Have had no issues since. I did send it out to have Windows 10 added on as well. Runs great I love it. The VCI you have is the same one if you have the plus the only thing diff is the screen size and scope module isn’t attached. That’s only reason I haven’t upgraded I find it faster having it attached and running at all times
@@weldingjunkie i agree that having the scope attached is better to. Thanks for the reply
Since zues is windows base,can i use it for pico scope software?
Absolutely I use mine on it.
My triton d10 is freezing since i got it and even after update,and my snap dealer offer an trade in for zues for around 5k canadian dollar..trying to make a good decision,since im planning to get a pico scope and a laptop(dell 7720)
How hard is it to clone the ssd? Do you have to buy acronis, or do they have free version?
It’s cheap to buy but there are prob others I just like it because it’s the best cloner out
@@weldingjunkie is it pretty easy to clone the drive?
@@brianpage2337 simple yes
Hi I have a question what are the benefits from upgrading the ram? I'll be sending my Zeus in soon to upgrade to windows 10 I heard it runs faster and smoother so just wondering about the ram sorry I don't know to much about computer's thanks for your time
How did you get Windows 10 on there I just picked up a Zeus and want to do this upgrade
Just call snap on you sent it in. It was $200 I believe well worth it imo
@@weldingjunkie after you did the update. Then you did the RAM and extra storage? Did you see any performance gains that was worth the money?
@@timlyon2924 night and day you can do a split screen with the Scope pid refresh is a lot faster plus it is valued to the tool when you’re ready to get rid of it makes it more desirable. I also upgraded the VCI to the canfd one
@@weldingjunkie how do you upgrade the VCI?
@@timlyon2924 I did to the canfd one s7 I believe it is
