Default Best code scanning set up?

I have a 1997 V70 T5 and wondering what the best set up is for code reading. I've got a crank / no start situation and diagnostics via process of elimination is proving time consuming.

I've read VOL FCR with a laptop is possibly best, but will this work with a modern Windows 10 computer and if so what is the correct cable? Original cable seems to be with a serial port but no modern computer has such a thing. Is there an OBD2 to USB cable that is known to work?

I assume most modern OBD2 scanners will not be much help?
