Unhandled Exception C00000005 (access violation reading 0x0144)

[HENRYH83]

Just how did you come to find out the error was generated by a conflict between your graphics card driver and AutoCAD?

Are you current with all 2012 updates?

I was pretty much informed of this on the Autodesk forum. I dont know how to check if I current with my updates.

From Autodesk site........



Try updating your driver HERE

Thanks i'll try this later this evening.

I did 'roll back' my driver last night and autocad worked fine, however the graphics on the laptop became really poor in comparison to what i was getting before. I have since restored my machine back to the settings i had before changing the driver settings. obviously this has made Autocad no longer work.

I see there are 3 drivers listed on the 'link' does it matter which one i use?

Thanks again for your help and sorry for being such a dumbass.

Look in the upper right hand corner of your screen. See that downward pointing arrow? Click on it. Then click on the "About" option. That will open a separate window. Your version of AutoCAD will be listed as well as any service pack (SP) information. See mine? I'm current with Service Pack 2. And you?

Try all 3 if necessary, but start with the one on top.

I've never had luck with Intel graphics cards and AutoCAD, might want to check if a dedicated graphics card is available for your computer.

Thanks again.

Just trying the new drivers now.

I take it all i need to do is just run the exe when it downloads, do i need do unload the old driver?

[HENRYH83]

I have now tried all 3 drivers by simply running the exe and keep getting the following error message
