Question
I have autoCAD 14 and am now debating getting a new vista computer or staying with the windows XP. I know autocad 14 is not tested on the vista or the xp, but I also know that the vista I presently have is awful when trying to work with autocad 14. Would buying XP be easier to install/ use when compared to vista??
the big mail-order and computer box stores are all selling computers with vista now. of course since 14 is ancient, I don't know if it will work well with that. I'd try to find a small local computer dealer that will sell you a new computer with XP on it. It is still available through local vendors.

I`ve been using AutoCAD since 1987 and programming AutoLISP nearly as long. I can answer questions about programming AutoCAD (except ARX) and production enhancement techniques. I cannot answer questions about AutoCAD crashes or DWG corruption. AutoCAD PROGRAMMING (menus, lisp) related questions only!
