    EXACTLY why I would never want Inventor to be "online" only.

    Autodesk is experiencing issues with the online software servers. This is due to a high volume of usage. We are working to resolve this issue as quickly as possible and apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Sure your engineering department is dead in the water and just twiddling their thumbs causing your company to just bleed money out all open holes but we will attempt to remedy this issue by sending you all free paper origami mice once we can get to your mailing addresses.

    Me!  I got my thumbdrive via UPS at 12:30 PM on 4/16/12!  Media was shipped from Weaverville, N.C.

     

    After un-installing Inventor 2013 Beta 2, I'll be installing PDS 2013 Ultimate on a Vista 64 machine.  Beta 1 and 2 seemed to work just fine.  While not supported, I expect no issues installing on Vista 64 machine.

     

    Autodesk withdrew support for Vista effective 1/1/2012, after releasing Inventor 2013 Betas 1 & 2.  I guess I got caught with my trowsers down on that!

     

    No, Windows 8 is not currently supported either, but Windows XP and Windows 7 is!  :smileysurprised:

    You know you can turn it into a nice USB stick, right?

     

    attached is a pdf of the instructions....google the Phison_MPALL_v3.20.0B that he references.  I first d/L'd v3.33.0C and it gave me a checksum error, so be sure to get the v3.20.0B.

     

    I have done two of them and it works great.

    That's what I meant by "wiped the old drives." Thanks anyway. Maybe you'll inspire some others to repurpose their flash drives.
