I have an old PC with installed Autocad 2004. I bought recently a new PC and I wanted to pass the Autocad software to the new PC. During the installation I got a message with the error 1.248.1001. I cannot continue because I do not know what does it mean.
Could you help me to find out the re-installation procedure?
Many thanks in advance.
Best regards

The error is likely occuring because the OS you are trying to install on is too new for AutoCAD 2004. Are you trying to install onto windows 7?
you can try using xp mode: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/features/windows-xp-mode
if you do a search on these forums you will also find a 3rd party software called Longbow that other people recommend which isn't free

It's hard to plan for pontential errors that can happen in future operating systems. Windows 7 was released in 2009 which was long after AutoCAD 2004 came out. I would suggest try installing it in windows XP mode as noted above.
No the error is because the new system has on operating system not supported by AutoCAD 2004. You may need to install windows XP if you still want to use that software.
