VIDA 2014D/2015A Windows 11

Overall, it works, but sometimes I can't enable diagnostics... and I constantly have to stop services via cmd...

@Di5B Do you run VIDA on native hardware or in a VM? Dedicated VIDA machine, or is it your everyday computer with lots of other software installed and lots off unnecessary background processes? Is any 3rd party antivirus or security software installed? What hardware specs?

Troubles troubles and troubles.
Finally got the Mongoose(obviously from aliexpress). laptop sees it. VIDA sees it. But when I try do diagnostic to my XC70 2006 VIDA says that all mongoose device is in-use by other app. I have only VIDA and Vdash installed from here and can't figure out how I can resolve that problem.

@KonK Do you try to replace an existing VIDA or is it a clean install? Do you want to install it in a virtual machine or on native hardware? What version of Windows?
Please locate the following folder: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\170\Setup Bootstrap\Log , there should be one or more subfolders with date and time as name, open the newest one and locate the file named "Detail.txt". It should have details what is the problem somewhere at the end.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to use VIDA 2014D with a Mongoose Pro JLR interface on a 2007 Volvo V70.

The connection itself seems to work:

VIDA loads the Mongoose driver correctly
VIN is successfully read
the vehicle gets identified correctly

However, I have a strange issue with VIDA itself:

After logging in:

both "Information" and "Diagnostics" tabs are greyed out.

After identifying the vehicle:

"Information" becomes available,
but "Diagnostics" remains permanently greyed out/unavailable.

So the problem does NOT seem to be complete communication failure, because VIDA can clearly talk to the car and read the VIN.

Has anyone seen this before?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

@jexyq Hi, happened to me once before. I unplugged everything, shut off the car, restarted the PC. Then -> car ignition, plug in JLR, plug in USB (get a USB device notification), start vida, and be very patient. I manually typed in my VIN at VIDA profile.

@odder Thanks for the suggestion!

I actually just tried exactly what you described, step by step and in that precise order, but unfortunately, nothing changed. In my case, I have never been able to get it to work even once, which makes me think the problem might lie somewhere deeper.

Thanks for the quick reply tho, really appreciate it!
