    Any one having issues with the final release of Windows 8 and Autocad Civil 3d 2013?

    Everything works well, couple of minutes having the program running, the program crashes.

    Tried different drawings, no luck.

    Installed "Hotfix 2" no luck

    Running with 64bit and as the administrator.

    Thanks,

    it's still an unsupported OS so problems will be inevitable

    Being running 2013 on Win 8 Final Release (RTM) for over a month.

    I did have a crashing problem and it ended up being the drawing.

    Other than that no issues. 

    Have you updated your video drivers from your MFG web site?

    All updates to win 8 installed?

     

    Here is my system

    Gigabyte MB, i5 3570 CPU, 8 Gb Ram

    Corsair SSD Boot, 1TB WD Data Drive

    AMD 6850 GPU (Not certified) (I play games)

    Dual 24" Monitors

     

    At work we have AMD V3900's for the GPU

    Great $120 video card. Solved quite a few issues with 2013.

    Haven't tried it on 8 yet.

     

    Good Luck

    Well it seems that windows 8 doesn't like cross sections.

    It crashes when I try to work with sections. On my win 7 system

    same dwg works fine.

     

    Argh!! I'm really liking win 8 too.

    AutoCAD + Civil 3d + Windows 8 = User Beware

    Refer to previous posts - Windows 8 remains unsupported and Autodesk software may or may not work - I'd suggest it may not be worth the hassle in a production environment at this time

    Buy a new hard drive, do a clean install to it.

    I'm going to buy anothe SSD so I can boot into

    win 7 if I have to do crosections.

     

    If it's your only hardirive I'd say no to windows 8 if

    you need to use autocad.
