Bored? Or trying to get around a licensing issue temporarily 😉

What did you try? or would you like everyone to regurgitate all of those back to you so you can spend hours/days saying "...already tried that..."?

What are going to do when you need an activation code?

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

Pardon for wasting time. I did nothing. I'm looking for a friend. WHAT I know is he tried what ever Google  recommended

Here you can download a "patch" to adapt the installation sources to install on 64-Bit OS. This "Patch" copies a transformation to the original installation source and modifies the setup.ini file.

 

This is easier if the user is not familiar with orca. And here is the explanation. It is in german, but you can tranlate with your browser.

Is that bug elephant I'm seeing not so looming as I think it is?

 

How is activation going to happen?

This does nothing else as that you can install AutoCAD 2008 32-Bit on a 64-Bit OS. Everything else is out of the scope !
