Thank you! That helps a lot. I've been looking for a copy of 2014 online.

I do not recommend purchasing from the user diagwork. It could all be chance, but the anti-virus picked up a "worm" on one computer, and several programs are no longer working on my main PC.

I checked my Mega account. It seems I didn't manage to get it uploaded as it kept hanging. I'll try to get it up today.

Hang in there I'm still uploading at about 55kbps so it may take another 6 hours or more.

Not sure if this is the cause but I've read that NA engines are picky about plugs and run best on the OEM 3 prong plugs. Might be worth a try since they're only $25-30 for a set of 5

And here it is:

Vida 2014A and is a tested version
https://mega.co.nz/#F!wpxjCazI!-sLkWCh3LgyCrfOHQT49JQ

Use Chrome or Mozilla because some versions of IE don't support Mega's site

The files have been modified to allow a lower level of system RAM so anything over 1.3GB is OK using this install. Each folder or file can be individually downloaded as a zip file by using the right click menu.

I'll pick up a set of triple prongs. Good plugs and worth a shot.

Thanks Mike! I'm downloading it now.

The seller of my setup said try it on 32 bit, offered to remote install it.

I thought you would succeed with the install if you stuck with the download. It's a lot faster than the virtual download alao here on.MVS due to smaller size.

I got the software up and running. There was a problem with .netframework, I had version 4.5.2 and had to downgrade to 4.0.0 to get the DICE setup to communicate.

Probably going to sell the v70, it has alot alot of mostly electrical problems.
I just got a '95 850 wagon with 110k on it.

Thanks for the help! The software is pretty cool, I still haven't figured it out all the way. I did get to run some diagnostics though! :D

What kind of electrical problems do you have? Are they faulty modules or random unexplained stuf ?

With Vida you can work through all of them without visiting the dealer. Vida can't access downloads however there is a forum member who can use the Dice as a passthrough and update or reload 99% of the software you may need.
