Unit arrived in a few days when shipped to UK from Czech Republic Good post, I've just been through this ordeal myself on my 2013 XC70 D5 (MY2014) and wanted to note down some findings / alternative steps I took since I didn't have a Windows 7 configured laptop ready, incase this helps others: Now if you find this useful then please show your appreciation by donating a small amount towards the person who developed this for free for the Volvo Community here. Login by typing "1" in the login text box and it should open. Once it is running start Vida and IE9 will open on the Vida main screen.ġ4.

Super expensive software like this can be highly fickle about when it wants to work, so as long as nothing is changed, it should work fine everytime you need it.For this direct install you must have a PC running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, and with Internet Explorer 9 (or higher) installed.įor any other system go here and follow the instructions for installation on a virtual machine (VM).
don't use it for anything other than vadis. If so, I can't tell you how to proceed, but best option is to put it on a different computer with XP. My guess is you bought a copy of VADIS from a ebay seller, thinking it was legit? I dunno which model you have but, the bently manual for my 85 244GL and this site has been invaluable. Still, the best thing is, the bentley oracle. (computer stuff like this takes a HELL of a lot of time, sometimes.)Īnyhow, I stopped using VADIS as it's really not as good as ALLDATA is. (like for instance using virtualdub and a windows image) That might be way out of your time frame. When you are messing with software that may not be 100% legal, it's best to do some ground work and setup a virtual machine to be safe.
