AutoCad Lt 2011 Hangs

[Anonymous]

AutoCad Lt 2011 working beautifull but has suddenly started to freeze on startup. Gets to splash screen and locks. Cant open from drawing file. Reinstalled/repaired, also reinstalled .Net framework. No change. Nothing in Task manager except  autocad.exe file trying to start.

W7 Pro 32 bit...nothing on host has changed.

Baffled!

Welcome to the Autodesk Forums!

First recourse should have been to do a System Restore to a week/month ago to see if a Windows update hosed your install. Even with your uninstall/reinstall that may be worth doing, though typically when you have gone through a reinstall it is too late.

As far as removing CAD and cleaning up .NET issues you should follow this advice: ( And removing all instances of C++ can help as well)
