AutoCAD LT 97 and XP

[drdave]

Hi folks

Is AutoCAD LT 97 compatible with Windows XP?

If it is, are there any issues at all?

Thanks

Hi Dave, it should work. For a hoot I installed r12 LT for students a few months ago, it came on 4 floppies ;), it worked just fine. You might have to install and run in Win95 compatibility mode. To do this right-click on the install.exe and select properties. Then click on the compatibilty tab. Here you can tell XP to install this in a compatability mode. You will probably have to do this to the LT icon after you install it. Good luck :)

Just for information. You can install programs in XP under compatibility mode, where you can choose the operationg system you want XP to pretend to be.
