AutoCAD 2010 LT runs really slow!?

[f700es]

Converted PDF to dwg! I think we have found the problem Houston

Purge the drawing and run overkill if LT has it.

@remark

yes, one file. unfortunately the file is very important and i need to finish a draft by tomorrow...

yes i did purge. or attempt to, there is nothing not in use ATM.

yes, ran an audit, found 0 errors, fixed 0 objects

file size is 12 MB. dunno if that's really big. certainly not the largest, last year I made some changes to another drawing probably 3X larger (in object count) on a much older machine running acad 2007 with few problems.

oh ok, killed communications center. what does that do anyways?

 

@bill

i checked with ATI/AMD manually i have the latest driver version.

 

@f700es

i thought that wasn't a good idea at first but it worked and I was able to shave off several days of work by using the template provided by the client (more than they probably thought we'd use)

Yeah, PDFs are a real pain in the butt, definitely like driving with your parking brake engaged. Gotta love OVERKILL though.

 

WHIPTHREAD?

12MB file that is a PDF converted to a DWG on a system using 8GB of RAM running at 688MHz? Yeah, I could see where you might have a problem.

 

Have you tweaked your virtual memory (swap file) settings?

 

Have you tried disabling all unnecessary processes running in the background and closed all unnecessary programs that are running concurrent with LT?

1333MHz will show up as 668MHZ (1333/2), so that begs the question..What is you RAM speed?

 

InfoCenter is Communications Center (a.k.a. SpyCenter) and if all you did was kill the process, it is coming right back. SEE THIS

 

You need the latest driver from Autodesk, not ATI/AMD see f700's link.

 

I would disable the AntiVirus also.
