Do you have all the windows Patches installed and running 8.1 ... that's all important that Windows is updated to 8.1 So make sure you have all them all then try installing it ...

After that if you're having problems still .... make sure you have all your antivirus and other items running turned off. If you get an error then.. post it here for us to see. There are quite a few threads about issues installing IV2014 on Windows 8.1 But in the end they all get resolved

Hi,

 

Its the firts instlattion on this laptop? Or a resinatlattion?

What is the installation method you are using? Direct from Autodesk website or you first download the Inventor?

 

Check if:

  • Logged as Administrative account (as said before)
  • Turn Off AV (highly recommended)
  • Has available space on the machine
  • Connect the llaptop charger

And IMPORTANT....read all the system requirements to Inventor 2014.

I have the same problem as the OP(original poster) of this thread.  I checked and my brand new PC is already running windows 8.1 are you suggesting that there are additional patches or service packs from Microsoft required even with windows 8.1? or are you suggesting if I am running windows 8.0 to update to 8.1 before installation of AutoCAD Inventor?

 

I have McAfee AV running, so I will attempt to install with it disabled.  My first attempts at installation were from the browser window by clicking "Install" ... this time I am trying to just "Download" the entire installer then install without requiring a network connection.  Some of the error messages I was receiving seemed to imply there was a communication error with the Autodesk servers during the regular install.

 

The download is 8.82GB size and after about 15 min @20MB/sec its only about 25% downloaded. I think perhaps the issue is the shear size of the installation its MASSIVE and any delays in download I'm assuming would be a factor that affects installation.

 

I'll try and remember to post my results with the Download first then install method and also with Antivirus disabled.

 

P.S. I HAD SIMILAR ERRORS ATTEMPTING INSTALL of AutoCAD 2014 too

 

Thanks
