What were you doing, or attempting to do, prior to the problem occuring?

i tried to install autocad 2010, and installed the visual c++ 2005, because it won't start for some reason, and that what i find out on the net that one need visual c++ 2005 inorder to work. after that, I find out the osnap has all disappeared. first i thought was just 2010, then i uninstall the 2010, but the 2009 also act the same. I have try everything I can find on the net, and even reinstall the window....but nothing can fix the problem.

 

thank you for your time to assist my problem.

I would have recommended trying the REPAIR option first before anything else. It can be found as an option on your installation DVD.

[beegee_tw]

i have done that already, dead end.....

Do you have a Windows Restore point that predates the installation of the very first AutoDesk software?

[beegee_tw]

i don't think so.....but i format the entire harddrive and reinstall everything....still the same problem....

Really? Sounds serious. Have you contacted your authorized AutoDesk reseller or AutoDesk itself?

[beegee_tw]

they say we will contact you once they find out how.....

[beegee_tw]

we will contact you as soon as possible....

I'm at a loss to explain it. If you hadn't completely wiped the system (Ouch!) I would have next surmised it was a problem with the CUI file.

[beegee_tw]

sigh......thank you for your time....

Anybody have any solution?

Must not be a very common problem. I think you may have to wait this one out. Did you try searching the AutoDesk or AUGI websites?

Are the OSNAP commands still operable? Can you still enter them manually?

[beegee_tw]

the osnap is completely disabled. no manually , nothing. i also checked on the autodesk website, nothing....

[MaxwellEdison]

So if you draw a line and then start the line command again, you can't enter _mid[enter] when prompted to select the first point to allow you to select its midpoint?

[beegee_tw]

if i draw a line and use shift+ctrl to select a mid point, yes its works. but only if i am drawing....the auto setting in the manu box is not work....
