One point about re-installing CAD software, Thomas. What I've said
previously (below) is pretty simple-minded and not the way computer
people would do it. It's just enough to get you going - maybe.
I'm certainly no expert here, but I know enough so that I would set up
the machine properly before doing any install from a CAD CD. This might
involve a preliminary THOROUGH (not Standard) scandisk and defrag,
rebooting with no programs loaded in the system tray AT ALL, maybe even
restoring an older registry prior to the defrag procedure if I suspect
some corruption there. You can also fix the registry easily enough
through Windows.
After going through all that, *then* I would install AutoSketch.
This probably isn't the forum for that kind of discussion, but I have a
few (actually MANY) moments at my disposal so I thought I'd pass it
along. If you want specific details (not too many because I don't *know*
too many) you can email me directly and we can go from there. If you
choose to email me, do it in English to prevent any mistranslation on my
part.
Ich hoffe, dass Sie verstehen.
That's the extent of 4 years of German language study 40 years ago. Not
bad, eh, Gerhard?
Was denken Sie? ok ok Was denkst du?
