What video card and driver do you have?

What Anti-Virus / Firewall do you have?

Do you have any other Autodesk software on the PC, if so what?

HII, i used to have autocad 2018 befor 1 reset my laptop. Its an Hp notebook running on Nvidia 1050 graphic card

I even tried with Autocad 2019, same issue

[mdavis22569]

Do you know the driver on the GTX1050 

They aren't certified and when some of the newer drivers are installed they have an issue.

Can you try this driver:

NVIDIA DRIVERS GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL

I have nvidia mx130 on my laptop. My brother has simple intel graphic card and he is able to run autocad but I am not.

Also my firewall is managed by McAfee Livesafe.

Please help me out.

Disable McAfee for a period of time and test AutoCAD again, any changes?

[mdavis22569]

The MX130 isn't certified either .. just an FYI. I've seen better with the Intel than the wrong drivers on the GTX's that why I suggested it

And  I would disable the McAfee like Dean mentioned

Done but still the same problem.

What video card is the current card? 

[Anonymous]

Nvidia mx130

[mdavis22569]

Try this

But I would also try an older version.. see if this card can work with it

[Anonymous]

no it didn't work.

[mdavis22569]

Older versions aren't working either?

[Anonymous]

No 

[mdavis22569]

You likely have a PC side related issue vs Autodesk issue.

If it was one version I might go with it..but if nothing is working.

Uncertified video cards.

McAfee running ... 

I'm looking at the PC as the issue. 

Might try here first:

Installation went fine, but not opening AutoCAD 2021.

I've RTX 2060 video card and No McFee antivirus.

Any help would be appreciated..

Hi, have just installed 2021 AutoCad. It worked initially(1 day) but now it will not load. The program starts then after approx.3 seconds disappears off the screen. 

I have repaired and re-installed it about 1 million times but still no luck. Inventor, Revit LT Fusion360 (downloaded at the same time), all work fine. Any suggestions greatly welcomed

Thank you
