    Inventor on Windows 8

    Hi!

     

    I was trying to install AutoCAD Inventor Suite 2013 LT Trial (x64) on Windows 8 RP yesterday when installation failed. I don't have the log now but the reason was .NET 4 or its language pack. dotNET 4 is a part of Windows 8 now, so any workaround?

     

    Thanks,

    Zoltan

    I'd be interested in your results, I dont have the time for testing at the moment but we have a couple of new lenovo convertable laptop tabs and a samsung tab we are running windows 8 on.

    I have installed everything in Inventor Suite LT 2013 and does work. However, both Inventor and Autocad are very unstable, I've got two access violation error message within 10 minutes. Doing real work in such circumstances is really a pain in the ****. Based on what 2013 versions doing, I won't bet on older versions.

     

    BTW I attached my setup.ini. I have deleted all DOTNET prerequisition. I didn't delete DOTNET sections between the begin and end comments because it ended in "missing DOTNET20 line" (os something like this) error message, so I deleted the prerequisition only.
