I first tried to install the 32 bit version and I received a message saying that the program cannot be installed on this operating system. I am running Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit, so I thought that I should maybe try the 64 bit version and now I am getting the following message:
CRC failed in x64\support\InventorView\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 2011\Bin\Bin32\Effects\Textures\Environment\Cross\ExhibitHall_LimitedUseLicense_CGIBackgrounds.exr
The file "???" header is corrupt
How do I fix this issue?
Install 64-bit software on 64-bit OS (like Windows 7). 32-bit software of for really old computers.
Since you started out incorrectly search Google for Autodesk Inventor Clean Uninstall instructions to start over.
Also, make sure you turn off UAC and anti-virus before install.
