Default bentley manual download

I apparently lost my ebahn 3 software. I have my key and everything but cannot find the software online to download. Any suggestions or anyone have the disk they want to upload?

Try your online account if you set one up on www.bentleypublishers.com at the time you did purchase it, if you did you have to re-register your product on your pc right online for up-dates but "not current up-dates" after 1yr. and as far as I can remember two months ago when I had to reload windows on a new pc I did see a program download area for members.

I do have the two disk eBahn desktop (no license) right in my hands now as I'm typing and it claims that "it does not include the serial numbers" this does not matter if you have the serial number even after one year, you just won't get the new warranty/campaign bulletins or possibly V3 program updates. So did I care "No" because I already paid for one media support extension for $65 in 2010 and felt it was a total waste of money for a few new pages on a model line that is and or coming up on a decade old for some of us.

I found a link on the Bentley site. It was hidden, also its amazing that ebahn doesn't support 64 bit that most pc's have now.

I'm runnimg xp-64bit because I like the memory limitation and eBahn hangs-up at times but it runs, so no windows 7-64bit support? That blows.

no 64bit support at all. win 7 pro has xp mode built in that it can run in but its a pain. Also Compatibility mode does not help. I believe that Ebahn went out of business.

Also confirmed does not work with windows 8 64bit, 2012 server, 2008R2 server, or any other 64 bit OS. Its a pain

did it install in c:\program files (x86)\ebahn

Thats odd it works with xp 64bit. On all other 64bit OS's it installs fine and opens but asks if we want to open/save some file and pops up errors about a regform everytime.

Installed on a hyperV xp machine (like xp mode) and works fine.

There are plenty of amazing things about e-bahn, and none of them are good. Great information, horrible delivery system.
