Hi
I just downloaded AutoCAD 2012 for students and have been trying to install it .
I am using windows vista home premium 32 bits .
First installation attempt took 20 minutes with an error message half way through regarding some faros.ls file . The installer finished and reported that autocad failed to install.
From the second attempt on , it took less than 5 minutes to finish with the same results .
I have turned off microsoft security essentials from the task manager and ran the setup.exe as administrator each time .
Attached is the log.
What am I doing wrong ?
Thx
Delete the faros.ls file
This may help

I kept getting 403 Forbidden on the link you posted .
Still , I deleted the FarosSDK folder and got it installed and running .
Many thanks !
