Vida software and Dice
I am new to this Forum and you were recommended to me. I read some of your posts, most inspirational. I have issues with setting up Vida from volvodiag.com Downloading and unzipping the files from the site was not an issue. Antivirus and firewall turned off.
My Laptop has Win 7 Professional with an i5 brain, 8GB's of RAM and a 500GB hard drive with heaps of free memory. The Dice that I have off eBay does not light up when I plug the USB into the laptop port. There is no SD card in the slot. Your help would be much appreciated. |

Based on what you've said though, there are no SD cards in any Dice so that isn't an issue and the Dice requires power from the car's diagnostic port before plugging into the laptop and being recognised so try that.

Vida software disc purchase
cheshired5, do you sell Vida 2014d on disc all ready to install? If so, may I order one from you?
Looking at the Swedespeed forum, appears that there may be a problem with the win 7 pro 64bit patch so IE 11 will not open to show Vida content, hence the blank screen with "local host". The Vida status shows a green flag and running. IE 9 will not run on my Win 7 Pro 64bit. All a bit of a puzzle. |

VIDA DICE Module
I plugged the Dice module into the OBD2 connector and sure enough the LED's lit up and flashed.
There is a rubberised end cap on the unit held on with an allen key bolt. Underneath the cap there is an SD Card slot on a black metal plate. I won't go there, I secured the end cap back. |

Vida Software
Thank you for the PM. I am new on here and unable to send PM's, with me having less than 30 posts.
From the PM received, That sounds like a good idea. I will just need to make time when I can do this. The Vida files are loaded, 8gb of data. It's all there just that the viewer won't open. It will be worth a try. I will get back to you. Thanks again. |

Is that a serious offer? If it is, please let me know what you cost.
It's not only about VIDA, but as you already have done a lot of repairs for your videos, there might be some questions that I would like to have answered before starting the repair. And who better to ask, than someone who had already done this. Sometimes a forum isn't enough, but going to the dealer is too much. That's where you would come into play.

Cherished5 Vida
Hi
Sorry to cut across the thread but I would like to recommend Cherished5 at the highest level. I bought my Vida & Dice unit last week and am staggered at the professionalism & helpfulness of Simon. |

Hi Simon,
I've recently inherited my mum's 2007 XC70 (P3 chassis) which has done 266k miles. It's been dealership serviced until now but I plan on maintaining it myself. Do you have a DICE box that I could buy from you? I plan on using a virtual machine version of VIDA 2014D with it (sourced from one of the other Volvo enthusiast forums). I couldn't PM you as I haven't hit the min post count yet and didn't want to spam anyone's thread to get there. Could you please PM me payment instructions? Thank you, Haydn
