Thank you
Example of Precision: Measure with a Micrometer, mark it with Chalk, and then cut it with an Axe.

And FYI:

Preinstalled on my VIDA laptops would be:

Win7Pro (with license key)
+
VIDA 2014D (covers 1999-2015.5 Volvo’s)
+
DICE drivers
+
EWD 2014D (the 2nd disc to VIDA, and harder to find. It’s the wiring diagrams.)
+
Vol-FCR 1.3 and 1.7 (for 1995-1998 Volvo’s, and it uses a different cable, that’s $9 on eBay... I just add this program as a bonus.)

And lifetime warranty on any laptop I sell.

I can also do a dual boot setup.... Two operating systems installed. One side would be Win7Pro dedicated to VIDA 2014D... and the other side would be Win10, and I’d include all the updates, MS office, and VIDA 2015 (the subscription service one, 3-days for $72, in case you ever wanted to program a key yourself or something.)

Like two computers in one. There's an extra cost to this, but it's small.

Do you have anything that will go up to 2019 ?
This has been a pain for me for a few weeks now

No. Sorry. Check out ELK Diagnostics. Uses a dice unit and gives you some things.

I could definitely leave you a partition to set up whatever OS you wanted... that's easy enough. But i don't deal with anything outside of Windows. Sorry.

DICE... just a matter of how long you want to wait for it. (NOTE: These change all the time, so hopefully they are still active/in-stock)

From the US, $85:

From China, $51:
