I am a novice in AutoCAD and I am trying to install AutoCAD 2006 on my new Vista. It fails to do so, says something about compatibility issues?
Anyone has any idea what might be causing this?
10x in advance,
Brad

Hi Brad,
Welcome to our forum and thanks for posting your question.
I managed to get AutoCAD 2006 to work on Vista Business in the following way.

Open up c: -> Program Files -> AutoCAD 2006, then right-click on acad.exe, choose properties, open up Compatibility tab, click the button near the bottom labeled "Show Settings for All Users", accept UAC, check box labeled "Run this program as an Administrator", click OK, check box again labeled "Run this program as an Administrator", click OK and close explorer.

Now whenever you launch AutoCAD UAC prompts you to accept it, and you have to hit "run program" but CAD launches.
If you have any other questions, you are welcome.
