Volvo's diag tool (VIDA/DiCE)

[2002V70XC]

I've got 2014A version running fine on Windows 7 Professional 64bit and Internet Explorer 10. I think theres a requirement that Vida/Dice don't work with Home edition so at least Pro or Ultimate has to be used.
If you accidentally upgraded your IE to version 11 then you can still downgrade it back to 10. I'm sure IE11 doesn't work with Vida/Dice.

does the "most recent version" mean anything for us older XC owners ?

I don't think so! Maybe they got extra stuff on the new version but you would be achieving the same things in terms of looking for codes, parts #....
I just wish that Vida/Dice would run faster. Its too slow for my liking!

Hello...when you by this you put the CD into a computer ( I have one in my garage ) and then the car plugs into a computer? I would love to own this since I have 2 Volvos but I'm hoping the tech part wouldn't be too much to handle ?

Yape, if you get the current version. When new versions come out, you just download the SW and installed it on laptop, that's it.
there are two rather reputable dealers, uobd2.net and obdii365
uobd2.net:$99
obdii365: $85
both of them are A-quality
well, easy to see that the later costs $14 less than previous, that why i choose to get it there
