The Courage Dog Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Hi, i have installed Autocad 2011 64 bit in my new PC with OS Windows 7 recently & i noticed it's too slow, anything you do ie. draw lines, zooming, panning, selecting object, opening drawing, saving, closing etc has delay og 3 to 7 seconds. Any idea? your help is much appreciated.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkmcswain Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 (edited) Unplug your network cable and/or disconnect any other network connections (WiFi, etc) Any difference?

Ephalim Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Hi there. I have the same problem (Athlon II X4 635, 4 GB RAM, Win7 Pro). Autocad takes forever to shut down, start or to browse projects on our server. I tried unplugging the cable and everything is fine. Autocad is now as fast as i would expect it to be. But how can i solve the problem? I want to work on projects on our server. I would appreciate your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Perhaps the source of your problem is an overly aggressive antivirus program targeting AutoCAD dll files it deems suspicious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkmcswain Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Autocad takes forever to shut down, start or to browse projects on our server. I tried unplugging the cable and everything is fine. That is the answer. AutoCAD is looking for something it can't find, which causes ridiculous delays. Without a network connection, it doesn't even bother looking, so you do not see a delay. You should be able to watch file activity to figure this out as described here: http://cadpanacea.com/node/71, except that Filemon has been replaced with ProcMon.

Ephalim Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Hi there, i already downloades the process monitor. According to the procmon Autocad looks for a folder "windows\csc\2.0.6\namespace\server1\daten". This folder was protected, so i took control over it and created the folders "server1\daten". They are empty. But now acad.exe answers with "sucess" when looking for this folder and goes an. But it is not faster than before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkmcswain Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Usually, I find AutoCAD is looking for a missing network path, a missing drive letter, a missing printer file (pc3/pmp), a missing system printer, or "infocenter"/"Communication center" trying to phone home, etc. I've never seen it hang up on a file/directory that exists.
