operation, video card

[Anonymous]

Hi Everyone!

I would like to inquire, whether my notebooks are compatible for AutoCad or not.

My notebooks are:

- Dell Latitude E6500

- Dell Vostro 3460

- HP ProBook 4535s

My AutoCad program:

- AutoCAD Civil 3D / FormIt Pro / Revit Live

As far as I know, video card should be compatible and strong enough for designing operations, but I'm not sure, where can I compare them.

If anyone can help me to clarify this issue, I would be really grateful, or whether there is a helpdesk, or someone, who can help me, please let me know!

Thank You so much!

Welcome to the Autodesk User's Community..

Well you never told us what video card model you have in these laptops...

You never told us what version of the Autodesk product you will be using.

I wouldn't use nor recommend using it:

Your video card the NV160M was released: Date of Announcement, 15.08.2008 

This a really old and outdated video card. While you might get it to run. But I would bet it's going to have crashing issues with Civil 3D
