drboushek,
To install AuotCAD LT, you must first download the software from the Education Community (assuming you are a student), and run the download or .exe file to begin the installation / extraction process. The following instructional links will help guide you through the rest of the steps needed to get the program up and running.
How to configure and install Autodesk software - LINK
How to register and activate Autodesk software - LINK
Please let me know if you have any additional questions or inquiries and I'd be more than happy to accommodate.

Hi drboushek:
You may follow the instruction from this video tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFA1kOdlQQw. The same principle applies to AutoCAD LT.
Thank you!

Hello. Recently i was forced to format my pc and i had my motherboard changed because the previous one died.
now i downloaded Autodesk 3DS max 2012 so i can start doing some fun projects but when i go to the activation licence and i enter the activation code i was sent when i first registered the product the code is 2 boxes short and sais its not correct.
Was there any changes to the licence method? The unfortunate fact is that i couldn't export my licence due to my broken motherboard.

Hi kenichikun92,
The activation code that you first received will only be valid with the corresponding request code that generated it. Please note that these codes are randomly generated, varying in length, and don't necessarily need to fill up all of the boxes.
I can provide you with a new activation code if you send me a Private Message (click on my philip.s profile name, and then "Send this user a Private Message") with your serial number and request code.
If you're still experiencing issues and or have additional questions or inquiries, please reply to this post and I'll gladly facilitate.

Here's a problem I would love to get fixed...
Why am I getting this? I installed the software the same way I did on all 20 of my other computers. The serial number is correct.

Hi,
I'm a CG french student and I have downloaded and installed the student version of 3DSmax but at the activation time,a white page with only two points to mark. I desactivated my firewall and my antivirus software but it doesn't seem to work (I'm on windows seven).Can you help me (and excuse me if I made mistakes when writing this message) ?

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Julian,a multimedia student from Hong Kong.Recently I installed OS and Maya+3dsMax on my new SSD because the old one is faulty.
However,I am unable to activate the Maya because I didn't deactivate until harddisk failure.It shows "Activation Limit Reached (Error : 10) ".
And the weird thing is,I can activate the 3dsMax,because even I activated it,it shows as "Not yet activated" on student.autodesk.com .
I hope this can be fixed very soon because I need to use Maya urgently for my project,which counts 40% of my result.I am also sorry for my bad English.
Yours Sincerely
Julian

Hi JulianLau,
Please Private Message me your Serial Number and the Request Code.
The request code is a series of random digits and letters which will appear on your screen when you begin the activation process. If you are activating the software for the first time, you will have two options: <Run> or <Activate>, please click on <Activate> and you will be able to view the Request Code and enter your serial number and product key.
Otherwise please take the following steps:
1) From the pull down menu <Help> and click <About>.
2) Click on <Product Information> button at the top right hand corner.
3) Click on <Activate> button.
4) On this page, you will be able to view Product Serial Number and Request Code
