I recently purchased a full package Laptop from Simon recently (VIDA installed on it already, separate Dice unit & the Laptop itself).

There was no messing, just plug-in & away you go!

Brilliant service, excellent items & secure packaging.

Simon is your man if you want or are considering getting VIDA/Dice. Look no further...

It seems to be possible to get VIDA on DVDs which will install on XP (not proffessional). This would save me trouble. Do you have any experience of this option?

Like any software, Vida can be made to work on almost anything with some effort but it's more a question of why would you want to?
Personally, I wouldn't spend time offering support trying to make it run natively on XP so you would need to speak to the sellers who are offering that solution.

If your laptop hardware is decent spec, you could upgrade it to Windows 7 Professional and if it can support a virtual machine, that would be another good option.

I now have available VCX Nano for sale.
Because of the woeful supply of Dice, I've decided to go down this alternative route instead.

I've been using a VCX personally for a couple of months now and it has exactly the same functionality as Dice and is used in conjunction with the main dealer software Vida to read all available modules on your car.

As with Dice, I test every unit and weed out any non functional ones so you will receive a guaranteed working unit which will connect straight to your car provided it is within the 1999-2015 model years with some exceptions at either end of the range.

You will also need a suitably specced Windows 7 Professional laptop to run the Vida software natively or a higher spec laptop or Mac to run Vida as a virtual machine.

I've tried extremely hard to keep the price the same as the last 3 years so 1 x VCX Nano and Vida 2014d software is:
£100 delivered to the UK mainland
£105 delivered to Eire
£110 to the EU
£115 to the rest of the world (price may vary).

Fast and good spec Vida laptops are also available for an additional £150 delivered to the UK mainland so £250 total for a complete plug and play package.

Many thanks to Simon for the quick delivery and very clear instructions - all up & running now & have been able to read the car.

Hi Simon,
Is there a way I could check whether this tool would be compatible with my car? It is late 2015 XC60 D5 220 AWD.

Thanks,
Sami
