Personalization floppy for ACADLT

Anonymous · ‎09-16-2002

Hello,

I have ACAD LT for Windows 95 which I upgraded to LT97. When I tried to
install the LT97 program in a new computer, I found that the
personalization floppy had become unreadable.
This floppy is essential for installation and I cannot get a replacement
from ACAD as this product is no longer supported. The ACAD service rep
said any LT personalization floppy would work and directed me to this
discussion group for help.
Can anyone get me a copy? The one I have is labeled "AutoCAD for Windows
95, 05703-004303-0050-1". I'd be willing to pay any associated cost. Any
help would be appreciated.
Marylou

I have a similar dilemma. In the course of moving locations, I have lost my personalization disk for ACAD Lt 97. Same story with Autodesk. I see that no one else has replied to your query, but was wondering if you ever found a replacement. I too would pay someone any costs associated with shipping or mailing a disk. I hope you have had better luck than I in finding a replacement.

Thanks Dave

I am having the same problem as both of you have brought up. Have either of you had any luck in finding the personalization disk? I am trying to reinstall AutoCAD LT 97. any help would be appreciated.

This release is no longer supported...

But you can try and contact Autodesk's customer service.

Thanks,

i'VE GOT A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH LT 95. I have the 2000lt upgrade, but need to install my 95 for the upgrade. Have a un-readable installation disk. Did you find a solution ? Thanks Tracy

Do you have an earlier release of LT? All the install package looks
for is the ACLT.EXE file and the ACLT.INI file.

Thanks for the reply. Originally I had generic cadd6. I purchased autocad 95lt, which I have the disks for, However, even pointing the 2000 lt search at this cd, seems to provide no results. I am assuming during the install process, the files on the cd are expanded, yielding the aclt.exe file. This however won't happen without installing the 95 lt version, which won't work without the floppy. Seems my old drive must have a corrupted file, as the program can't recognize this file in the original installation of autocad 2000lt on that drive. Any suggestions ? Thanks Tracy

It is one of the more absurd upgrade systems around. The same goes for
QuickBooks Pro. My hard disk failed and I had to replace it, pay for a
data recovery service to get the data back, and then go about
reinstalling all the software. With QuickBooks, I had to install and
register the first full version I had (7.4E circa 2000), and only then
would the 2005/06 upgrade version install. This is so absurd because
Quicken has my full registration and upgrade history!

The same goes for AutoCAD. Fortunately for full AutoCAD there is not
this hassle

With LT95, there is the original personalization floppy, and then
there is a personalised floppy that is written to when you install it.
It is this personalised floppy that has the modified executable
ACLT.EXE, and the ACLT.INI files that are copied over. Again, the
upgrade version of LT only looks on the hard drive for these files.

You might want to try a different floppy drive to see if it is just
your floppy drive that is having a problem reading it.

OK People, After much digging, I found a copy of my original personalization disk for autocad 95. It worked to initiate the installation of Autocad95lt. After which, I was able to install my Autocad 2000 lt upgrade. If anyone needs a copy, we can try to either copy the files and email, or if all else fails, I can create a floppy. The files on this disk seem touchy, as it took a few tries to re-copy to my original disk. However I ran a re-install of 95, and it worked. I guess the only drawback is that it will personalize your program to me and my company. Tracy

I'm attempting to install AutoCAD LT 95 in my office and am missing the personalization disk. I realize your post is six months old....but, is there any chance I can get a copy of the personalization diskette?

Appreciate any help you can provide.

It's illegal to ask for what you did, hopefully the Autodesk folks in charge
of licensing aren't watching... .

I am in the same dilemma of misplacing the personalization disk, did you ever find one?

kccampbell · ‎08-06-2007

I am in need of a copy, is one still available?

Anonymous · ‎08-06-2007

Nope, you can't buy one or obtain one from Autodesk as far as I know: the
only source for legit copies.
Contact reseller in your area, they might have an alternate.
