Hi all,
I work on Win XP pro 32 bit with AutoCAD LT 2008 on
I'm going to format (I want a clean and brand new installation of drivers and software) my pc and upgrade my OS from XP to Windows 7 64 bit ultimate. I want also to upgrade my LT 2008 (32bit) licence to LT2010 (64bit)
On the Autodesk upgrade center I've found this:
"Before You Upgrade: You must have a legal, installed version of the selected Autodesk product with the original serial number which has not been upgraded before."
Somewhere else into the forum I found this:
"LT since 2004 or 2005 only asks for previous serial number, nothing more,
when a newer version is installed as an upgrade."
http://discussion.autodesk.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=724145
Now the point:
If the forum is true, I need only the previous serial number and everything is alright.Then I'll install Win 7 x64, LT2010 upgrade that will ask me my LT2008 serial number and that's all!
But If the Autodesk upgrade center is true I must have my legal installed version of LT2008 before i upgrade to LT2010
The problem is that LT2008 32 bit won't install on any 64 bit OS including Win 7
After format and install of Win 7 64 bit how do I install LT2010 upgrade without the previous LT2008?
Any help or explanation (if I've missed something) is welcome.
Best regs, Max.
