Another laptop had Windows 7 home edition. I couldnt even start the Vida installation on this. Tried installing a Virtual Box and XP mode but then for whatever reason installing XP mode corrupted the soundcard. I'm not making this up. It had been the bane of my life for the last week. I was merely replying to your comment saying its very simple which IMO it really isnt.

Thanks.
Like any program, Vida has specific system requirements.
The laptop you're selling has Vida 2014d.

Vida 2014d Requires Windows 7 Professional
3gb Ram
30gb free HDD
IE9

If you try to make it work on anything other than this, it won't work.
Load it on a brand new laptop with Windows 10? Won't work.
Load it on XP? Won't work.

Vida not working when you try to load it either on incompatible hardware or correct hardware running incompatible software is not the fault of Vida.

I'm a lorry driver so I'm surprised I'm having to say this to an IT engineer.
