AutoCAD 2007 and windows 8.1

Anonymous — Tue, 20 Jan 2015 21:30:47 GMT

Will AutoCAD 2007 run on Windows 8.1? or Vista?

not without issues

you can try using the windows Compatibility troubleshooter: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/make-older-programs-run#1TC=windows-7

or you can try using a 3rd party tool called longbow: http://www.longbowsoftware.com/ not free

none of these are guaranteed to work

Autocad 2007 came out before window vista & 8.1 did so it will never be compatible
