AutoCAD 2004 Installation

[Anonymous]

I had to recently upgrade my home PC from a Dell desktop running Vista to a Asus laptop running Windows 10. I own AutoCAD 2004 Student version. I have attempted to install it on the laptop with Windows 10. The installation went without any problems but when I click on the icon to open AutoCAD it does nothing. Is there a way to have AutoCAD 2004 run on a Windows 10 environment?

Thank you for any input or suggestions.

Watie.

Possibly, but not without some mods. It's very probable that your 2004 EDU license has expired anyway.

EULA States:
An Educational Stand-alone (Individual) License is for a fixed term specified in the applicable License Identification or, if no such term is specified, the term is thirty-six (36) months from Installation or as otherwise authorized in writing by Autodesk.

Download the current student version and run that. You'll save yourself a lot of trouble.
