***I posted this in the general community forum first, reposting it here so people who need it see it.***Here is how you can install VIDA to at least look up parts and procedures. Please note this version does not having wiring diagrams. Sorry . This tutorial will work regardless of whether you are running PC or Mac. Here we go. Also, the download links here were found in a similar thread on Matthewsvolvosite without an in-depth tutorial http://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/for...ic.php?t=55027 . If any of the links are down, please let me know and I'll find new links or upload the files elsewhere. As always, do this at your own risk, do not blame me for blown up computers.--1) Go to the following seven (7) links and download the files. Six of them are 1GB, and one in about 100MB. The total extracted size will be about 14GB.****Mac users: if you have VMware Fusion or a virtual machine, do the download on your windows virtual machine or partition, this will make extracting things easier. If you are bootcamped, do everything in bootcamp. If you don't have any of these, just do it in the mac partition.--2) PC users, open up 7zip (or a similar program used extract files) and highlight the 7 files and extract them.Mac users: if you have VMware Fusion or a virtual machine, do the extraction while in the virtual machine. Extract to desktop and make sure your desktop is shared with your mac machine. If you are bootcamped you are doing everything on the bootcamp harddrive partition. If you don't have any of those, find a comparable extraction program such as The Unarchiver etc. and extract the 7 files.--3)If you have VMware Fusion, just open the folder that you extracted and double click the vmware image file and skip to step 6.--4)If you don't have VMware, go to https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/fre...are_player/6_0 and download the latest version of VMware player. However, I would personally advise you to actually buy VMware Fusion Pro. As a mac user, it is a powerful tool that allows you to run Windows and OSX simultaneously. I can literally copy something in OSX, swipe right to my VMware window, and paste it into windows. As an engineering student stuck with a macbook the benefits are endless.--5) Install VMware Fusion or Player.--6) Open the folder you extracted earlier, it should be named "WindowsXP SP3 - VIDA2012B". Double click the vmware image file called "Windows XP Professional.vmwarevm" OR right click and click "run with VMware fusion" or "run with VMware player". I tried opening VMware and trying to open the file while in the program but that didn't want to work.--7) When you run the file, a series of pop ups/prompts will likely come up. The first one should ask if you copied the virtual machine or something, click "copied" Just keep hitting yes. One will say something like "something couldn't be run on start up" or other nonsense. Keep hitting yes.---8) You should see the WinXP boot sequence. The desktop should load up, which should have a series of instructions on it.--9) WAIT. This is critical. VIDA can't run right away. Follow the instructions on the desktop. Wait for the icon on the bottom right with a yellow triangle in it to turn green. Hover your mouse over it, it should say VIDA status.--10) Once that icon changes, you're good to go. Follow the instructions on the desktop background to start VIDA up and select the right region (if in america, "AME") and stuff to enter your desired vehicle's options and stuff.--11) Stay Swedish. If you have any issues or I made an error in the instructions let me know. But once again, please know that you are installing this at your own risk (although in this scenario there isn't much of a risk but I still put the disclaimer). I'll try to help you if I can.
