is need used Autocad R14/2000/2004/2005 need powerful hardware?

[moobkee]

I have Autocad 2000/2004/2005.

 

I will install Windows 7 (64bit)

(1) any documents tell me which version have 64bit and support 64bit W7.

NOT 64bit BUT choose 32bit mode.

 

some one said from autocad2005, that "setup64.exe" is 64bit system only, mean = supported?

 

(2) If correct, autocad 2005 used "setup64.exe" to support 64bit,

that autocad 2000/2004, is dis-supported 64bit? or only use Windows 7 (32bit)? or only choose 64bit BUT choose 32bit mode to setup.exe?

 

 

any advice !

I want to still use R14 from my XP 32bit system.

that 2000/2004/2005 used new W7 64bit system.

is need used Autocad R14/2000/2004/2005 need powerful hardware?

I have installed

Autocad R14-512 RAM/

2000-2GB RAM/

2004-3GB RAM/

2005-3GB RAM,

but all is on-board display, and XP(32bit), so far no any problem now,

 

but will buy windows 7 (64bit) computer, (else R14), 6GB RAM but onboard display. enough?

 

and R14 can support 3GB RAM (used Win XP 32bit) ? R14 need more RAM size? not sure?

 

any idea please!

The minimum recommended hardware specs for any version of AutoCAD can be found online.

 

I would not recommend trying to run r14 on a Win7 64-bit computer. Run something newer. For 2D work a minimum of 2GB of RAM should be fine. For 3D work bump this up to 4GB. I don't like nor do I use onboard graphic chips. I prefer a dedicated graphics card. Even a relatively inexpensive computer can be purchased with a graphics card of some sort that can be upgraded later on if need be.

It seems like all of your threads are following a common theme, so I have merged them all into this one.

Strike 1 - R14, 2000, 2004 and 2005 are not 64 bit compatible

Strike 2 - R14, 2000, 2004 and 2005 are not Win 7 compatible

Strike 3 - Autodesk has retired all of these versions, so they do not offer technical support for them anymore.

 

That's 3 strikes, you're out.

 

I have heard that some people have installed these older 32 bit programs on 64 bit Win 7 in XP compatibility mode, but I have no experience in that area. I'm sure you can probably install them that way, but will they be stable and reliable? Will all of the features and functionality work correctly? I have no idea.

 

My recommendation would be to upgrade to a newer version. Since you have all of these old versions of Autocad, you can get in on Autodesk's Legacy Program and save a lot of money on the purchase of Autocad 2011.
