Autocad 2013

[Anonymous]

hi everyone, need some help on this one

i've installed autocad 2013 on my pc 64bit, intel i3 processor with 6GB RAM. yet after installation and run it for the first time, it stays for 3-5 secs then it closes..now i've uninstalled it, wiped traces of cad in the system and registry, installed again, run then it just flashes..

what might be the problem here?

thanks!

Hi,

turn off/disable your antivirus software and start AutoCAD by right-clicking and use option "start as administrator" ... does the same happen?

>> it stays for 3-5 secs then it closes

Do you see the full AutoCAD these 3-5 seconds or is it the splash screen for some seconds before it's closing?

Does it report any exceptions?

yes, I've disabled my antivirus.On my first installation I saw the full autocad and on the 2nd one it just flashes, no error messages and anything.

btw, design review and inventor that comes with cad upon installation works..it's just the cad don't..

Hi,

>> it just flashes

It just flashes means now the AutoCAD or the splash screen of AutoCAD (the startup-image)?

Have you tried to start as admin?

And another question: were you asked already for the activation of the license?

yes, only the startup image then it closes...I've tried as admin but they're just the same.

no activation screen yet, it doesn't show...just the splash screen only
