Autocad LT2014 locks up on save and select

Hi

 

I am having issues running this version. 

It locks up on select

Saving takes forever.

completely hangs after pasting.

Bascially unusable,  Please help

 

Windows 8.1 X64, Autocad LT2014 (new install)  redone many times.

Problem with and without SP1 installed.  (tried it both ways.)

 

 

thanks

Hanes

Unfortunately AutoCAD 20xx is not supported in Windows 8.1

 

You may need to roll back to Win 7 or wait for AutoCAD 2015 although some have succeeded with a prog called LONGBOW (google it).  Others have just lucked out running on Win 8.1

 

Regards,

DJ

change LT2014's hardwre acceleration settings, and see if that helps.
Also visit your video card manufacturer's website and see if there are newer Win8.1 video drivers you can install and try.

Thanks for the response. I turned off hardware acceleration as well and still similar affects.

The notion of going back os bothers me.

Hello from France


As said DrJohn you have to switch back to Win 8.0 or Seven OR wait a little bit and update to 2015 version ...

 

But you can try something else !

Please try (if possible !?) to reset the Color Depth Setting of your graphic card to 15/16 bits (32000/65000 colors)

instead of the standard 24/32 bits color mode (16 millions colors) ... sometimes it works !
