Sorry, I have not used Autocad on Vista.
We have not ( and have no plans to) put any Vista machines on the LAN.
All the machines I use with Vista are either at home or ones I repair.
I do service calls/repairs as an independant contractor for a vendor that
handles warranty calls/installs, etc. for HP/Compaq among others.
The last call I had was to setup an PIV ID server and
workstations/scanners/card readers/writers for a Federal office building.
With all the rigamarole it takes just to get an ID badge, it's no wonder
they have such a hard time getting even half intelligent people to work for
the government.
Unless your version of Autocad specifically Made for Vista, I would do
several things during the install to attempt to make it work.
1) find the install file (setup.exe or such) on the CD/DVD, right click and
'run as admin'
2) install somewhere other than the default Program Files (I use C:\old
programs, but almost anywhere outside Program Files is better than in it)
3) install in XP compatibility mode
