I've an array of laptops to use too so what spec would be ideal?
(IE Windows 7 Pro/Windows XP Pro;- do I need VM etc...?)


Massive thanks!!!

Hi cheshired5, I tried sending you a PM but the system wouldn't let me. Recently returned to the forum after being away for 6 years. Anyway, I bought a vida from the interweb, but cant load it. Sent it to a computer expert, but he came back with "disc corrupted mate" He has downloaded from the web all the info hopefully, but I need a back up disc. Would you be kind as to rip me a disc and sell it to me ? (Dell 630, IE7, Windows 7 Pro, 4gb memory, 40gb) Laptop completely wiped clean. Im on the Volvo FB forums as Adi Miller Many thanks.

The last of the current laptops which are:

2 x Dell E6400 with 14.1" screens and 1 x Dell E4300 with a 13.3" screen.

Applicable to all 3:
Windows 10 Pro
Vida 2014d running natively not in a virtual machine
Intel dual core 2.4GHz processors
4GB Ram
100GB free HDD space
Ex business laptops in good used condition running Vida extremely well and quickly
Fully Windows updated with Internet Explorer 11 and the latest .Net Framework and can be used as an everyday laptop when Vida isn't required

Laptops are £145 each delivered to the UK mainland

£100 extra (£245 total) to add a fully tested and working Dice.

See my feedback of nearly 3 years on the rest of the forum.

The laptops are set up so you basically turn it on and with the simple instructions I send, you're reading your car within 5 minutes if you've also got the Dice plugin tool.
You can either get a general overview of your car's status or go into high detail dependant on your circumstances but Vida does contain a detailed help program and you're welcome to contact me anytime too for guidance.

Default Now with SSD included

All laptops will now be fitted with a 120GB SSD for an even faster experience.
The price will increase slightly by an additional £5 which is much less than the cost of the SSD upgrade.
Even higher capacity SSDs can be fitted for a little extra and for less than cost price.
240GB SSD + £15
480GB SSD + £35

Anyone who paid more for an SSD upgrade from me previously has been refunded the difference.

All laptops run Vida 2014d natively on Windows 10 Pro, have 4GB RAM and can be used as everyday laptops when Vida isn't required.

In Summary:
-New, tested and guaranteed working Dice with full installation support £100
You must already have a suitably specced laptop for this option

-Vida 120GB SSD laptop on its own £150

-Vida 120GB SSD laptop with a new, tested and guaranteed working Dice £250

These are delivered prices to the UK mainland.
Europe and the rest of the world cost extra.

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.
